I worked on unique greeting cards through the winter. You can send it to a loved one, or mat and frame it for yourself! A selection is at Art on Depot in Waynesville.
Really special occasions
Latex paints
Much of this painting was done with house paint samples. They are creamy and fun to work with.
Black corrugated plastic board
You know the yard signs for realtors and politicos? This is the same material, only black. The paint sticks okay, but scratches off easily. I’ve used latex paint samples from Lowes, dripped enamel, gold craft paint and some acrylics. This is a step in the ongoing Eye Wonder series.
Reflections
I’m thinking about updating my website. 2013 was not a productive year. Hopefully it was a transitional year.
Recyled plastic sign board
I primed this plastic sign board. You can see how the brush skipped across the corrugations. The paint doesn’t stick perfectly, but this was a stab at loosening up after the Eye Wonder series. The self portrait was pretty straight forward, but the addition of the enamel drips is working nicely.
Year’s end
This has been an…interesting year. So instead of thinking of things that I believed were wrong, I’ll just set them down to be “features”. I haven’t posted due to holidays and illness. This is an updated WP, and I have to figure it out.
In progress
I’m still working on mastering acrylic paints, instead of them mastering me! The eye is from the Eye Wonder series idea, of observing (and wondering what I can do about it?).
Thanks, Forrest.
I got a stomach bug after Forrest updated my WordPress. Trying to learn the new stuff. This pic was before, on my BD. Now, do I remember what I just did?
Numbers signifying what?
This illness has had me watching numbers (platelets) for three months. I’m over it! This eye will be ringed by bruise colored numbers. 
I like these women!
They don’t look important enough to add to a grant application, but I find them coming along when I need them. Today,s new discovery was wiping acrylic over the enamel drips. Previous faces were tinted with pastels.
