The Small Works Show is coming up in Nov. and Dec. at Haywood County Arts Council. This painting, acrylic on canvas, is 8″x10″ . It will be framed.
Disruption
I was thinking of this as a disruption from sexual assault. Then came two hurricanes. My hematologist is an oncologist also, and I see many people there with cancer. Disruptions happen. Some can be protested, most have to be lived through. This is a sketch on paper. I’m not much of a draftsman, more of an interest in color.
Small Works in Nov. & Dec.
I do not normally work small but I continue to support the Haywood County Arts Council (HCAC) by participating in this show that runs Nov. and Dec. The recent large works that I have done about damage to our environment have moved down to these 8″x10″ canvases.
Still separated
So many distractions, but there are still over 1000 immigrant children separated from their parents. The consequences will be awful.
BT, what do you think?
I’ve struggled with this. It was pretty easy to block in light and dark clouds, but pushing it to make it a painting, was work.
Tangle or life?
This is a second go at Tangled Web. This is on gessoed paper, and I don’t think it’s better for ripples. And the gesso is gritty. Lines were pencil of charcoal. I imagine I’ll do more in Sharpie. After visit to Doctor for injection and pharmacy for prescriptions, I do feel like a bug caught in a web of “health care”.
Tangled Web
There’s a quote, which I did not look up, about tangled web we weave. But the POTUS has his own problems. This is more about dealing with health insurance and the webs they weave, and their agenda to deceive.
Separation
This idea started as a protest of separating children from their families, as a law enforcement tool. But there is a giant Balsam fir in the middle, the kind that are dying out in WNC. So your guess is as good as mine. It is a painting not a representation.
Landsfall
Photos of Earth from space are fascinating. This is one of my own versions.
