"The Stroke of Midnight"

about 11"x5" mixed media on paper

How about this one? A little different for me. It has my collage papers, acrylic "skins", string, ink, oh my! A lot of fun. The black is a piece of archival mat board. Go figure, I would have never thought I'd do something like this. My world continues to expand.  : )

"Celebration Bouquet" ---#8 -Sold

8"x6" mixed media on paper

Okay, so today is the 9th of January, this must be painting number 8. Yes, it is. When I painted the bouquet earlier, I started three at once, so you will see one more of these little gems this month. Possibly this week!

"Girl Talk" ---#4

8"x6" mixed media on canvas panel

More dots, a little bit of glitter, mostly acrylic, "Girl Talk".

It's not a martini, but I think they may have a martini later!

This painting was started... wow, last year sometime. It has been sitting around my studio for a while.  I knew there was something there but I couldn't seem to find it. It made me think about what Myra and I were talking about earlier this week. Use up the materials we already have. I have quite a few paintings started, it may be time to finish a few!

Thanks Leigh, Myra and Leslie, for getting me back to the painting mode. I hope it stays for a while!

Have a great Saturday everyone!

"Promise"

6"x8" oil on canvas panel

Hi! This is a crazy painting that I'm working on here and there, just playing around. Kind of like an instinct painting, if there is such a type. 

Looking at this photo on my computer here, I see a little something I can add already! 

Wow, taking a photo and posting may be a good way for me to see my paintings in a different way.

If you don't mind me experimenting.... I have another painting I am working on... that just isn't there yet... I'll photograph it tomorrow and post it. Maybe something will be shout out to me!

Tomorrow's painting, the one I'm not sure of... is number one of the "Spirit" series...  : )

It's February 15th, the day after Valentine's Day, these few flowers seem to have been forgotten. Not really, they are here for you!

Happy Day after Valentine's Day!
