Living in a rain forest, when all it does is rain, has it’s drawbacks. At least it isn’t snow.
CO2 painting
I plan to stay very busy in my studio to avoid the coronavirus. The idea of naming this CO2 came out of the blue, or not blue if smog is high. But it was a vapid little painting. Some bold additions have helped.
Re-emergence
My life feels like a broke ass ladder, emerging from the goo, one more time. Surely beats being stuck in the goo.
Pollen
So much pollen this spring!
Climate Concern series- Melting
This series is exploring Yupo, a polypropelyne paper, that loves water. Since we’ve had double normal rainfall so far this year, it’s fitting to explore very wet paint, and monoprints. This is an off axis print, with more paint and pastels.
Another one of the prints
Yupo seems good for monoprints. I did this series on problems from climate change. This one is called Consequences.
Monoprints on Climate Change
Yupo is fun to work with. I made three prints off the original, and then painted back into them.
Two pcs. are translucent and two are white. I love the translucent ones held up to the light, but haven’t quite figured how to do that display. Anyway, the first received my wrath, I really laid into it, since I can’t affect who is annoying me. There was so much paint that it was oozy. Ever the miser, I tried my first monoprint, tho I guess technically they are tri_prints.
Lxii9-Landslide
Our front yard has slid, been repaired, and is sliding again. And of course it’s raining! This canvas is about not having control. There are bits of charcoal embedded in the paint.
Distress, Distract, Woodpecker
Needless to say, this is about some different things.
Storm’s Coming
I started this last summer. I used silver Sharpie to highlight storm clouds, but it bothered me. I added more paint.
