ABSTRACT DANCER in ACRYLIC

This little figurative abstract is part of my "Strength of Women" series...It is also an entry into the Daily Paintworks "Picasso It Challenge". We were challenged to paint in the style of an artist that we admire. I have taken couple of most wonderful workshops with Robert Burridge. He paints from within his heart and he encourages others to do the same. He paints free and with enormous passion - A passion that sometimes eludes me. I think my passion gets lost between laundry and grocery shopping...

FIGURATIVE ABSTRACTS in ACRYLICS

Sometimes you feel like painting just for yourself and not for anyone else...You paint because you feel the need to create and transform the blank canvas into something that speaks to you. Those sessions in the studio are truly special and a part of you is left behind on the canvas.

There has been so much negativity and unease around me in the past few weeks and that mood carries into this painting. There is also hope for a better tomorrow.....

This painting has many thin layers with areas of texture. A semi-gloss gives this piece an amazing sense of depth.

These two 5x7 originals are actually Christmas cards for my family and friends. They are painted in acrylics on gessoed paper. The final product is varnished with semi-gloss for a 3-D look. Once the holidays are over, these little paintings will look FABULOUS matted and framed.

Sweat Equity

I found a photo of some construction workers installing windows ---with some cropping and brighter colors I think it made for an interesting painting. A bit out of my comfort zone, but I do like to experiment...
