What is painting? This is acrylic on canvas, with enamel drips. The Eye Wonder series are on paper, 8″x10″, with enamel drips. The series leaves lots of room for creativity for me, and the format is convenient for all of your framing needs. The questions about the unpredictability of living, and drippy paint, remain. The materials have been changed, to protect who? Canvas, paper, words, eyes, cats, barns, salamanders. Sure as you’re born you’re never gonna see a unicorn, unless an artist makes it.
Words
I’ tried some words in the manner that I did the Eye Wonder faces. Don’t know where these will go, but I’m pleased with the start!
Thanks to everyone for their support for my show Sunday. It was fun!
The eyes have it!
Getting ready for the Open House Sunday. There will be food, so take a nice drive into the country and check it out!
Open house next Sunday
I was baffled as to how to show a bunch of paintings of ladies with attitude together. This bulletin board in my studio is working great. Each “portrait” is mounted on foam core, sleeved in plastic, and T-pinned to the board. This is for simplicity and affordability. Each person can choose their own framing options.
These are variations on a painting I did years ago of a blanket flower. You can see how my work evolves and grows.
Any subject
I like the series approach with the dripped enamel. How about cats? We are considering how to display the faces of the Eye Wonder series for the Open House on Sept.22. We put two next to each other, and it was too chaotic, and I know what I’m looking at! How would you deal with a bunch of ladies with attitude?
Every one is original
Even tho this is a series, everyone is unique. These two have enamel drips and Sharpie details. Wonder where they will go tomorrow?

I got a new latex enamel paint. I was working on this painting, and thought the enamel would be an addition. Eye wonder what the doctor will say about my platelets, tomorrow. This health scare has certainly interrupted my momentum in the studio! One lesson, time’s a wastin’!
Enamel dripping continues.
I’ve tried a set of cats. What do you think? This may go under shameless commerce, the Open House is coming up. But I think this is unique. And there are more cat lovers than people that will buy the Eye Wonder series. A bit of good news today. More platelets, than less. Still a long way to go.
Imagine Peace
Kinda hard to do right now.
Back to the Studio!
The drip paintings are morphing. I think I’ll make some into unique greeting cards. Open House Sept.22!
