So....the first painting upon returning is my submission to the DPW Challenge. I like figurative, so this was a good one to start me off. I also did some revisions to the larger pieces I painted in Arizona. I'm working on ideas for more larger paintings, but hope to get back to doing frequent (if not daily) smaller paintings. It's good to be back!
Daily small paintings- and an occasional larger one-in a quest to refine my craft and above all, enjoy the process

6x6; Bid on This Painting
Wow! I can't believe I last posted over month ago! I think that's the longest "dry spell" since I started this blog. We were in Arizona and I did do some painting there, but my improvised studio is not as compelling as my studio here in Seattle. The biggest reason, however, is that I have access to an AWESOME clay studio, and I was busy making totems and tiles. I made tiles for our bathroom backsplashes, and then barely finished the kitchen splash tiles before we left. I did a mosaic over the stove, and I'm pretty happy with it; all it needs is grout....

I like the red hat.
ReplyDeleteI was talking and distracted while I typed that comment, what I meant to say is that I really like this painting and think the hat is really an attention grabber and a great focal point.
