Works in Progress
On the easel this week is this fairy girl with bird. She has a LONG way to go yet! I wanted to show you the process of development though. Again, this painting started out all colorful marks like graffiti. The first thing I painted was the fan! Then the hair, face, bird, wings and then all the rest came in at the same time. The graffitti was preserved in the dress and wings of this fairy/angel . I'm not at all sure why she is holding a parakeet except to say that when i looked, there it was, already formed like it wanted to be there so I painted it in more clearly. This painting I beleive measures in at 24"x24"x1 1/2" gallery wrap.

The Thin Veil
Was working in my home studio the other day and I often times get angels that appear in my paintings when I work there. Well, in order not to waste any paint I took my palette and smeared it onto a canvas and spritzed it with water and left it. When I came back I saw most of what you now see here. I added a few touches here and there but all the images that appear were there already! Freaky, huh? This one I call The Good Shepherd. It measures 16"x20" acrylic on canvas.
