Eye Wonder about the weather

This has more underpainting, before the enamel streams.Eye Wonder about the weather With tornadoes and hurricanes, and other freak weather, maybe she is wondering about the weather.

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.5-16-13a5-16-13b

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.  3-25-13a

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.  5-2-13

Dahlia

This round background lends itself to a dense circular bloom, the dahlia.   They come in all colors and sizes.  Remember, t4-30-13his is a painting, not a living flower.

Gonna be a Dahlia

These round pieces of plywood come from our local Restore.  I’m interested in painting a round flower on a round ground.  May be too hokey.4-22-13

Salamanders

Western North Carolina is known for it’s diversity of salamanders and newts.    I did a series of 12 red salamanders.  The streaming enamel paint makes each one unique.  Anyone who’s played in the creeks around here has seen some kind of salamander. 4-17-13 I will be showing the series at The Whole Bloomin’ Thing, May 11.

More log cabins

These are some production pieces slated for Art on Depot.  The drawing is done with enamel paint, flowing from a bamboo skewer.  The pastels enhance the atmosphere and season.4-10-13a4-10-13b
