Sedona Inspired

22"x28"
Title:  Canyon Wall
Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

So here it is, finished.  And now I am happy with it.  It still has some of the happy color, but holds together with some structure and interesting shapes and forms.  It was truly inspired by our visit to Sedona, AZ earlier this month.   It just needed to rest over night, so I could see it with a fresh eye this morning.

Preview of Work on the Easel

Untitled
22x28
Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

This painting may be finished and it may get a rework,  I haven't decided.  I love the colors, but it seems to lack a strong enough structure of lights and darks.  I will just let it sit around the studio for awhile and see if it asks for new passages. 
I worked on a very textured canvas.  One I had painted over a painting that I was not happy with.  In the texture I used a combination of liquid gesso and matte medium.  It gave me a very different surface to work on than I am used to.  I loved experimenting like this.  But sometimes it's a winner and sometimes you wonder "what was I thinking?". 
Time will tell the fate of this piece.  I'll let you know.

Party Girl

"Party Girl"
watercolor 22x30

This is a watercolor that was painted a couple of years back. But I thought I would post it, since I am doing some more figurative work now.  I wasn't using as much acrylic and opaque passages then.  But I do love the feeling in the painting.  The inspiration for this one was a photo from a New Year's eve country and western dance.

Urban Rain


 Urban Rain
Acrylic
22x30 Gallery Wrapped Canvas

On this painting, I started with a heavily textured canvas.  Working first with thin layers and glazes of fluid acrylics, I used the underlying texture and also created new textures.  Then I began to mix paint with gesso and paint more directly with opaque colors and changes of value.  The painting gives me a strong feeling of rain of a urban rooftop.
