segments

Here are a couple of segments from out of the painting I'm currently working on.

The overall size of the painting is 6 feet wide, 4 feet tall.

Originally, it was inspired by some visitors not long ago who loved this other painting-- (6 feet tall,4 feet wide), but needed something horizontal to fit their home.



(I need to re-shoot this earlier piece as I've definitely changed it beyond this point as seen at left!)

vintage fabric

This fabric has been around the house, catching my eye for some time. Originally (when I bought it at a neighborhood rummage sale) it was sewn into a sort of shoe (or something) organizing thing-y. Eventually I disassembled it, and yesterday, started gluing it in to my current painting.

I haven't actually collaged fabric into a piece in a couple years (?)-- but it just felt right.
I love this print.

the color blue

In honor of the painting I'm currently working on (though it is nowhere near this intense) I bring you moments of inspiration by the color Blue.

Infinite caves

"Rare cave pearls fill dried-out terrace pools near the Garden of Edam in Hang Son Doong. This unusually large collection of stone spheres formed drip by drip over the centuries as calcite crystals left behind by water layered themselves around grains of sand, enlarging over time."
