Old memories...

I spent some time going through my picture collection and found the "Grandma Moses style-era" of my evolution. I had a lot of fun, and I've actually sold most of those originals. Here are a couple of pictures from that time.

It's interesting to see how we change as artists. I'm sure I could sit down and paint another one, but I'm not drawn to the style any longer. I'm more into mixed media these days as there are so many possibilities for exploration. My collage supplies and do-dads are taking over my studio space like an alien invasion!

Are you C-R-E-A-T-I-N-G?? If not, what the heck are you waiting for? ;)

WEIRD is now MOON GODDESS...

From Weird to Moon Goddess...

That's a big jump in titles, but the painting had a life of its own. It's finished! Woo-hoo! I had such a good time painting it. Women power and all that. Love, not war. Intuition, listening, not rash acts.

Cheerio,

WENT CRAZY OVER THE WEEKEND...

Crazy painting that is. I had this large canvas that was already purple. I bought a lot of 1" gallery wrapped canvases (great quality) for $ 5 each. Can't beat that!!!! They were all painted in a different primary color.

Anyway, I went weird, and I don't know where this painting is going. It's tribal for sure. It's a great exploration for me. The long thing is definitely a snake. I did paint the head part on the other side of the canvas. I don't know why I'm into the tribal stuff right now, but I'm going with the flow. Maybe it's that primitive side of me...
