I continue exploring what impact humans have over nature. This flower was made of dripped enamel, blue, then collage and drawing elements added. I could copyright it, patent it, and claim that I made a better flower. International agro businesses do it every day.
Color addict
I’ve been doing a different kind of work with the Modern Muses. They are more assemblage. I needed a color fix!.
Freedom
I had a painting that I felt obligated too. Today it disappeared under this one. Too early to tell, but I’m glad the other one is gone.
paint or color
Just layin’ em down, one foot in front of the other.
putting the time in
The more time I put in at the studio, the more I get out of the experience
. Huh!
more Holly
I’m on the fence, about 
whether to give a recognizable element of a plant, or to go completely abstract. I don’t think you’d recognize this as a holly bush without the title.
Tiny painting
Last year I did some really big paintings. This year I’m going the other 
direction. This painting is 5″x5″. I’ve done a series of six, the smallest is 1″x2″.
New series
I have an assortment of small canvases. I usually work large, but I’m going to do the same image on each of them. This is the largest, at 12″x12″. I continue to pursue a place between representation and abstraction.
Tai Chi helped
We went outside to do Tai Chi today. Then I went into my studio, and had a productive day!
double
Both of these paintings are from the same photo of huechera leaves. There is a distinct advantage to working on two canvases of the same image. I’m seeing how changes on one can spark movement on the other.
