Spring

Thru the winter I worked in acrylics because I have a propane heater.  It does NOT like fumes!  I believe I’ve learned enough to no longer be afraid of them, but I will go back to oils until next winter.  I continue to explore spirals as well.  I’ve moved away from helixes.  There are lots of different kinds of spirals.4-6-10

These are acrylics.  I’m getting more used to them.  I’m using the spiral as a symbol of life, like DNA.3-31-10a3-31-10b

trying acrylics

My FC studio has a propane heater and I can’t use oils when it’s lit.  I got to work there today.  These are two 30″ panels.  I don’t know whether the doors will warp, but I put the paint on in washes.  I really like the effect.  I know I will put more paint on them, but maybe I can save some of the wash areas.  The color is so delicate, and the panel is not.2-24-10
