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.
