Painting as I see it.
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.
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?
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’!
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.
Kinda hard to do right now.
The drip paintings are morphing. I think I’ll make some into unique greeting cards. Open House Sept.22!
Before I went into the hospital, I had experimented with dripping words. Because of those starts, I had something to work on today, instead of trying to start flat footed. I think this may work into a handmade greeting card. Save the date, Sun. Sept. 22 for my art sale! Any proceeds will go to pay my medical bills. Thanks!
The series continues. The dripped underpainting gives me a wealth of ideas on what each of these gals is wondering about.
The Eye Wonder series is rolling merrily along.
