“spectacle”
Hey everyone;
hope all is well… I am pleased to report that I am back in the studio again… seemed to have contracted painter’s block that stopped the flow of creativity, (probably work related…lol.) .. not really sure what is was, but gladly that has passed…. been a busy couple of months… now the smell of fresh paint is all over the studio and I am extremely excited to be creating again…… here is my latest creation,.. it is called “spectacle”.. it is oil, 6 ft x 6 ft .. hope you all enjoy… I’ll have another one out shortly..
……peace

abstract florals: study of blue tulips
one of my favorite flowers has always been the tulip…. simplicity, yet sophistication…. I think it really speaks to the duality of how something so small can be so powerful, but then flowers have always been like this…. I always try each year to add a floral to my portfolio… as an abstract artist I think they make excellent studies due to their ability to be portrayed as abstractions, yet connect us to reality …. here is a recent study in abstraction… this is mixed media…. wood panel, oil, acrylic, aluminum panel…. this just came off the studio wall last week and is drying…soon as they dry i’ll be adding a polymer resin top coat, which should really set this off nicely… hope you all enjoy… i’ll have another one out shortly….
…….peace

working the series…..
Early on I was always told to make a series of each work, never just one…. I have always tried to live by this rule with my artwork … so once I start a new work, there is a high probability there will be two more behind it…(unless I run out of materials…which happens…lol).. So in the spirit of painting in three’s here is my newly completed series ( at least the last two)… I haven’t yet titled the series… if you have any ideas please let me know… as for now here is abstract 85 and abstract 86…hope you all enjoy.. I’ll have another one out shortly… talk to you soon..
……peace
