This painting, "Seagulls on a Beach" I did at the last art show in Ft. Payne, as an exhibition painting. I really enjoy painting for the people and I think they like to watch the process happen.
Today I did two paintings, this one entitled simply, "The Rooster". I have been experimenting with a new technique and have really enjoyed it. I never know what the painting is going to be, I don't attack the canvass knowing, "I think I'll paint such and so..." This type of painting happens after I apply some gel medium and paint and smooszh it around some with knives. Yes, that is a technical term "Smooszh." I lay a color or two down and while it's drying the images I see while walking around the table and canvas become clear. This time it was a rooster.
This time it was birds on a branch. These Orioles came out last night. As a past resident of Maryland I just was thrilled to see them appear!All three of these canvases have a 1 1/2 inch gallery wrap on the sides. The Seagulls are an 8"x8", the Rooster is a 16"x16" and the Orioles are an 8"x16".
Birds, Birds, Birds....!!!!!
By the way, the "Rooster" has SOLD!

I love Roosters, please tell me more about this painting.
Bobbi, this painting sold tonight already! It just appeared on the canvas when I used the knives to apply color. I am really enjoying a new technique of late. Keep watching to see what else appears.
