"New London" mixed media geologic abstract painting by Carol Nelson

New London

This is another in my geologic abstract series.  The inspiration for palette is my newly remodeled bathroom, which has some really cool tile accents.  The name of the tile was New London, and, of course, I have red accents.

Sometimes people ask me, Where do I get my inspiration?  This is a perfect example.  It's just colors and textures that get me going in a new creative pursuit.

"Forest Wonders 4" mixed media tree landscape painting by Carol Nelson

Forest Wonders 4

I love including these mixed media tree paintings in my workshops.  The color combinations are endless, because in my world the trees are vibrant.

Students do very well with these.  This is one of the workshops I will be teaching at Art of the Carolinas on November 7, 2013, in Raleigh, NC.
