Reincarnation
Pigs became fall at the lake
Tropical palm trees.
Art Prescription: Like life…art can be all over the place. And sometimes we need a “do over.” Today I had many of these as nothing I painted resonated with my soul.
Here is a many, many, layers final piece:
Recycled papers
Cut out like paper-dolls, make
A junk mail garden!
Art Prescription: Here’s a mate for my last “junk mail garden” piece. A fun way to recycle, cut your junk mail up into shapes and paste onto a surface. I’m using watercolor here. Paint and highlight your cut flowers, and draw some stems and leaves, and now you have a garden.
Final coat of paint.
The muse looks and nods and cuts!
Parts greater than whole!
Art Prescription: The last few posts including today’s are all part of one painting. After several layers of reworking, this piece was just not happening. When you feel stuck with art, go for a walk and see what happens. I came back from my walk and began to cut the one piece up into about 5 small trading card size miniatures. Each one had an interesting texture and spoke to me. I worked quickly with pen and ink feeling satisfied with all my parts!! Try it!
