Some Recent Work

Art has been pretty much on the back burner for the past 6 months. I've been focusing on other long needed lifestyle changes. Plus the summer and fall were particularly lovely this year, sunny and warm. Now that we're moving into the 'dark time' again I plan on kicking my own ass back into gear and get back in the habit.

There has been some movement to put paint to substrate since I last posted, primarily at my first real attempt at abstraction in acrylics. The canvas is 12 x 16 so much too big to scan and frankly I'm feeling lazy at the moment so I'm not even going to take a picture of it at this stage. But it is ongoing and, I have a feeling, going to go through many evolutions before it's complete.

In the meantime, here are a few little projects that I've worked on recently. 

Indian Corn - mixed media

Clay pots - mixed media

Pointsettia - watercolour

Interesting - I have a new scanner and this is the first time I've scanned items at this low resolution. Things look very different than in real life. Will have to play around with the settings I think. I may come back and switch out the images at a later date. For now they can hold their place.
