New Phone Cover

 

I treated myself to a new phone cover with one of my images from Zazzle.   I picked red so I can find it in my purse!  Ha Ha

Tulip Sweetness 12" x 12", mixed media on canvas

I just love the close up quality of these plaster paintings.  They have such great appeal.  Here I tried to keep it light, colorful and airy.

Crows 10" x 10" mixed media on canvas, sold

 

 

 

 

Creating this plaster background was very fun, but I had no idea what to put in the foreground.  I decided on a coastal bird, but it just didn't look right against all the cracks and texture. Then I thought of these crows and they definitely worked for me.

Crossing

Crossing 6" x 8", Mixed Media on Canvas Panel

I am loving this new look of impregnating plaster into burlap.  It is quite a process, and I am having fun experimenting with all the different things I can do.  I like to break the plaster to create all the little cracks and crevices.  Then, once the plaster/burlap is adhered to a canvas panel, it becomes very strong and stable. 

Doesn't it look great in  this black frame?   Unlike some of my other paintings which could go frameless, I love how this frame makes it pop.  It really makes the piece. 

You can purchase both here.

Charlie

Charlie 4 x 4, oil on canvas

Just a little 4 x 4 portrait of my friend's dog, Charlie.  Sometimes, I like oil because it doesn't dry too quickly and it's like painting with frosting...fun!

Reflections of the Day

Reflections of the Day, 5" x 7" Mixed Media

I had been struggling with a small landscape painting and I thought it best to just leave it for a while.  So when I picked it up again, I was ready to throw it away and thought I got nothing to lose if I just play around with it. 

First thing I did was turn it so that I would start looking at the piece a different way.  I also kept some of the papers from the original showing through.

I'm also very excited about my new website.  Come stop on by....
