It's been quite awhile since I've created a painting that I really like. My newest piece, White Grass, is one of my new favorites. I was inspired by my friend Elayna and her gorgeous hand painted silks. To me this painting reflects the coming of spring, new beginnings, and peacefullness.
Yesterday my sweet hubby made me a frame for the painting. He's pretty new to woodworking, but is really enjoying it. So I thought I'd spring a new project on him. When I returned from church last night, he already had it hanging in the living room! It looks so good. Thanks sweetie! xoxo
...I found out this weekend that I need to renew my membership to BoundlessGallery. So, I'll be doing that today. =) I also want to continue with this grass series. The next one is going to be smaller, but hopefully have some key similarities.
I'm going to be in a new show this month at Planet Earth and the Four Directions Gallery. I'm very excited because I created a painting specifically for this show and am pretty happy with the results. I made a mixed media painting that consists of four panels. I decided to take the definition of the heart, love, emotion, and language. Each panel has the definition collaged and then painted over in watercolor, acrylic, and latex. They are all very textured and make bold statements.
