PAINT PARTY FRIDAY 10/27

Hi Everyone!

Wow another week gone. So much going on in my life, (and thank the gods most of it good) that when PPF comes along I am scrambling to get something made up to show. I need to take some time for quiet, easy going art. LOL We took a drive to Bandon, OR. yesterday. It is one of our favorite towns here on the Oregon coast. People are so friendly, the art shops are pretty amazing and we just have a nice time. We do it at this time of the year because during summer the tourist make it impossible to enjoy the town. Haaa even my own town.  Then for what ever reason I have been sleeping in. I am normally up by 5AM 4:30 is better for me. I didn't get up until 8AM today. OMG!!!! I haven't done that since....... well I don't think I have ever slept in that late. It makes me feel like 1/2 my day is gone.  I guess I needed the sleep.  So a big thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting 

Paint Party Friday. I am anxious to see what all of you have created this week. 

I did get this drawn early in the week.

This is something I have wanted to try for some time.  I did learn that lighter colors are better than the darker for detail. 

I used a canvas that has been repainted on many times. That did lead to some nice texture.

PAINT PARTY FRIDAY JAN 12

Hi Everyone!!

I am floored at how fast this week went by, but excited to show you what I accomplished this week. Most of you know I am creating something everyday and I am happy to say that this new found energy of creating has me ahead of the game.  I am getting two sometimes three pieces done in a day. YAY.....  A huge thank you to Eva and Kristen for hosting Paint Party Friday and to all of the artists who show their art.

  

Daily drawings are teaching me a wealth of art techniques.

I am very much into drawing ethnic faces. 

I am learning so much by doing the light and dark. 

24x18" acrylic abstract painting with two molded leather faces. This is so pretty in real life. 

  
I have new shinny spray paints and they are AMAZING.
 

 This is an 24x18" flat board canvas. 

Acrylics and all done with a knife.

I drew this on some paper I have had for a very long time. I graphite didn't take too well due to the tooth of the paper. I will use this paper for some other type of art.  Oh and the paper is a light brown color. Hey I was just playing. LOL

This is a 12x12 frame with 3-D protruding leather face. These are really fun to make. I cut and make my own frames, prep the leather, mold the face and then dry paint it with acrylics.

I drew this boy this morning. In the photo I used for the face the boy had sky blue eyes. I just left them light.

I hope you enjoyed my art 

and in some way I have inspired you.

Leave me a comment I love hearing from you.
