Alchemy #2

Oil and Wax on cradled Ampersand panel

The Alchemy series was named because of the colors that were appearing as they were applied to the panels.  It was such fun to just see what happened and how the colors morphed and changed.  Alchemy #2 is a real mystery now because I have absolutely no idea what colors I used.  It will never happen again.

This is the second painting that was accepted to Dutch Art Gallery's next show, It's a Small World.  It was painted after returning from a wonderful art trip.  All of the colors and shapes that appeared as I was painting  remind me of old weathered boards and walls with warm last rays of sun shining on them.

I hope you can come to the opening reception on June 6,  11 am to 6 pm.  Come out early.  The gallery gives out goodie bags that contain original art by some of the artists in the show.

Next in the Dreaming series.  It is a view from somewhere above us all.  Clouds, lights, roads, water...It is what I think we would see if we were above.

Enjoy!

Three of my paintings have been accepted to Dutch Art Gallery's next show, It's a Small World.  There was no theme for paintings that were entered.  They just had to be smaller than 11x14.   I will tease you by saying images of the others will be posted soon.

It is rather nice to get to repost Dreaming.  It is what has inspired some of my recent paintings.  It will be nice to see them all together.

The series continues.  Somewhere along the way, I may be changing the titles to be more descriptive. Until I see them all together, dates will have to do.

Last Saturday was my presentation to the Dallas Handweavers and Spinners Guild.  I really enjoyed meeting everyone.  I hope I inspired them to look for different sources for inspiration for their art.  Where I look at weavings and pottery for a lot of my inspiration, I hope they may start looking at paintings and other mediums for theirs.  Thank to Anne Cameron for asking me to talk to the Guild.  

This painting is hanging at Dutch Art Gallery.  Check it out in person!

I still surprise myself when I have a painting that is so organic.  I am a very geometric person.  I love the straight lines of architecture.  I like things lined up on the shelves in my pantry.  Yes, I do sneak some hard lines in an organic painting.  I love the contrast and I hope you do, too.

This painting is now hanging at Dutch Art Gallery.  Go by and check it out in person!
