A really quick thinned oil in a watercolor look with scribble.
So fun to do expecially because this is my youngest child
with her first baby and my first grandbaby!

This is another painting of two of my daughters engaged
in conversation.  Must be 'confidential'.  I've tried this in
a different technique.  Very little paint is used - it's
thinned with paint thinner and appears to be a
watercolor and I can hardly wait to get to the point
to scribble ! Anyway, it's fun and freeing.  Enjoy!

O.K., so I traveled to Washington DC with my beautiful
daughters for my birthday, and everywhere we go, I coerce them 
to 'pose' for me of which they now have become acquiescent.  
Here we are at the Supreme Court which was on the list
because two of them are attorneys and one is an interior designer 
and an unbelievable artist, so the architecture and the representation
of this building was a must!
To me, they make wonderful models, but because of my
signature style of 'featureless' faces, they can become
anyone.  Therein lies the fun of it!  The contrast of the light and
shadow in this scene was enticing to me.  I hope I have done it justice!

By Appearance I


By Appearance II
                                                                               


 Not really a diptych, but they sold as one.  Another of my  'technique' 
of a painting within a painting.  Subtle, muted colors with just a little
vibrancy and texture added.  These turned out a somewhat bright,
so I used one of my tricks and covered them with a wash of
raw umber to tone down.

available for auction on Daily Paintworks.com

I've begun to do some small pieces and I love doing
them, but must confess, it is a learning process, since
I'm so used to painting pretty large works.
But...wouldn't you love to be under that umbrella?

been juried in their online gallery.  Take a look!

The Vision

24 X 36 oil and glazes

available for auction on Daily Paintworks.com
starting bid: 600.

A 'newish' concept letting the background do a lot of the work.
It's done with lots of layers drawing your eye down
to the focal point of the painting. My featurless face
with a mood to unravel and a story to tell.

A Provacative, Female Figurative Contemporary Painting

Don't Look Back

I feel this painting is a little mysterious in feeling - something you
(the viewer) can create and give a story to and make up your
own interpretation.  Maybe someone's after her 'orange slippers'!
