"SANDSTONE" 11005, daily painter geologic abstract © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"SANDSTONE" 11005
"SANDSTONE" underpainting
I took a workshop yesterday.  It was about approaches to abstract expressionism.  We examined the work of three prominent artists, including Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Richard Diebenkorn.

Of the three Diebenkorn is my favorite probably because his style is the closest to the type of work I do.  We worked on raw canvas that was stapled to a firm support - masking tape covers the staples so they don't get paint on them and become harder to remove.

Above you can see the under painting, which was in warm tones analogous to the finished piece.  I scraped the painted surface with a large comb to make some parallel lines.

If you compare the random color fields of the under painting, you can see that I merely enhanced what was already there.  It was truly a case of letting the painting paint itself.

Of course, it ended up looking like a geologic abstract!  No surprise there.  I'm not putting this on my website yet because I'm not sure how I'm going to finish it.  Right now it's stapled to a support and doesn't have a finished edge.

This painting began as one image and after working with it quite a bit, became totally another.  It took many turns until I was pleased with it.  I've used rusted found objects, copper, oil, oil stick, graphite, old wood and sections of other paintings I have done.  Never discard anything - when you least expect it, it works!

This mixed media piece was inspired by the beautiful view we get when driving up I70.  You can see this panorama when you come to a well known bridge knows as "Beauty Bridge".  It got its name because it is one of the few bridges in Colorado without a support in the middle.  Built with this very view in mind!

"Aspen Lights and Shadows" original mixed media painting © Saundra Lane Galloway

 "Aspen Lights and Shadows"
12x25 mixed media on 1 3/4" cradled panel

Being new to this blog I thought I would start with my breakthrough piece into the style I now call my own.  Being a painter for over 30 years I tried oil, watercolor, acrylic, fiber arts, and a few others before I realized that something was missing.  I needed to find a style that I could settle on, but was unwilling to give up working with variety.  Variety of media, variety in style, variety, variety, variety.  In short, I worked a medium until I felt stifled and bored in some way and went looking for something to stimulate my creative vision.  SO, I developed a set of questions to ask myself, and then some specific challenges to FIND what I could find a LOT of excitement in, a LOT of inspiration, and working in paper and acrylic and sometimes oil, BUT working in a recognizable way found me. 
detail
"Aspen Lights and Shadows" reflects my love of trees, my love of color and texture; the whole shebang so to speak.  I sometimes add words as I have in this piece.."Aspen Lights and Shadows Weave Through" was my first.  And, sometimes I just stream color throughout and paint subject matter on top.  I am honored to be able to share this journey with you all!

This is one of the medium sized abstract paintings I completed. There are some gorgeous copper painted areas that don't seem to show up in the photos. I titled this "Emergence" because the final painting just seemed to emerge as I worked with textures and colors.
This painting will be hung without a frame. The edges are painted black - really sets off this piece.

A designer in Houston saw this painting in a show and knew her client would love it in her new home.  She wanted to do a triptych as the wall where they were to be hung was large.  She commissioned me to do two others relating to this one.  Somewhat of a challenge, but was actually very fun to do.  This is a painting on top of a painting using a new technique I have developed and I love the outcome.  They are always surprising.  They are going to the framer this afternoon.  Stay tuned for the next two.  Visit my new technique on my website to view others.  Enjoy!
