Acrylic Painting
6×6″ panel
This is my recent contribution to the Different Strokes From Different Folks art challenge. A photograph is posted on this blog every two weeks - for reference only. Artists are encouraged to create with as much freedom as we allow ourselves. I went with my first impressions: abstracted shapes, angles, shadows and lights…and re-worked the shapes until everything related harmoniously.
SOLD.
Acrylic Painting
5×7″ prepared panel
I took a walk in a living painting - of this sunset along the Maine coast in Ogunquit as day ended and the ocean receded. Well, this tries to come close to the colors I saw…
Please email me if you are interested in this evening-scape.
Wood frame detail
This is a detail section of the mirror frame that I spoke about in Sept. 22 “Woodcraft” post. The wide frame is filled with wavy, compound curves of natural woods: walnut, cherry, mahogany and poplar that are inter-woven. I was interested in fashioning shapely pieces (some very intricate) with the intent of creating a mirror-art piece.
While sanding each sculpted piece, after shaping it first on the band saw, then scribing the next piece, shaping it, sanding…the process becomes totally spontaneous that it simply flows.
I thoroughly enjoy working in my chosen mediums: paint, silverpoint, and wood. Please see the Sept. 22 post to see that intricate piece of cherry in its place here.
