I am not studying eyes, obviously. They are a symbol, a holder of emotions. Is anger pink and greed black? Does Mr. Potato Head have his angry eyes?
Women wondering
I have pushed my series “Eye Wonder” . Now I am adding collage and words to the dripped/streamed paintings.
I opened an Etsy store under my name, if you would like to see more of the “Eye Wonder” series.
Etsy Shop
I have opened an Etsy shop for small works and prints. I’m of the Luddite generation, so be patient, and let me know if I’ve screwed stuff up. With andy luck, here’s the address http://www.etsy.com/shop/SusanLivengood?ref=search_shop_redirect
Cool. Or go to Etsy.com and search for susanlivengood. Let me know what you like and any suggestions.
Eye Wonder about the weather
This has more underpainting, before the enamel streams. With tornadoes and hurricanes, and other freak weather, maybe she is wondering about the weather.
Investment grade art.
Some people make art to make a brazillion dollars. Some of us are more interested in the process, than the product. I doubt anyone needs a Clown face, but I needed to paint it.
Panels
The original painting of this image is at Art on Depot. Cathey suggested I try a pair. I’ve used the streaming enamel paint that I’ve been using recently for the stems. These are acrylics, the original is oil on paper. I did it in SA 1991 or 1992. I like the looseness of these new ones. Blanket Flowers are a native wildflower in Texas.
Whole Bloomin’ Thing
Dash between the raindrops tomorrow, to Frog Level. My booth will be in front of Art on Depot, or inside, if it’s pouring. I have lots of new and “affordable”( never say cheap!) original art pieces.
Keep it Alive.
Support the Library! Tell the legislators why you use the library. Are you looking for work, filing important paperwork, getting a DVD, downloading music and books, or just checking out a book. On May 28, at 7pm, meet the head of the library, and some of the county commissioners. As they chop the budget, we must be heard. Meeting in the Fines Creek Gym. Think of your neighbors and the children in this community, and the blessing that the library is to education and entertainment.
This was the steering committee meeting on May 9.
Whole Bloomin’ Thing is Sat.
Do you have a spot for a round piece of art. Check out my abstract Dahlia. Or how about a salamander. My booth will be in front of Art on Depot. I’ve made a deal with my brother in TX. Sat. he gets the rain and I get the sun!
Whole Bloomin’ Thing
Should I call these “Sketchy Girls”? They are so much fun to make! I’ll be showing them on May 11, 2013 down in Frog Level at the fair.
