So for 3 days I have endured the dreaded sinus. Tried to paint and that was disastrous. So I took a color test got 100, took an age test got 18 (now thats a joke) finally I resorted to reading my books on Joan Mitchell and just day dreaming about art. Worked and now I'm ready to paint. Love spring but it does most of us in.

Yesterday was the photography day.  I'm not fond of that day.  Setting up, taking down and hoping it was spot on so I don't have to repeat.

OY!!!!!!!!!!!!

So about today's painting.  I don't often paint in this colorway but this worked out so well.  It will be
more amazing when it is polished as the underside of this painting is indian yellow and turquoise.
So all the purple colors are mixed with these two colors.  It gave me such an interesting combination.  Not sure I could repeat it so when I know that happens I seem to be more fond of the painting.
ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

well this will be an interesting post.  the first one is new and the second is a repost.  Sometimes you get funky paint.  Or you mix brands.  It may seem harmless but when you have a painting that does not dry in 4 months.  scrap it back and reapply.  All is good.
30 x 48 "My Heart Belongs to you"   (New Piece)

36 X 48 "All the Nuances of Love" So this is a repaint and I think its better.

March ahhhhhhhhhhh spring is in the air and it's coming.  We all had such a mild winter I would think we can't complain but spring is something to sing about.

You will all find out eventually,  I Love Joan Mitchell's work.  Surprise.   I did this painting in my style but with her in mind. This Diptych will be at Galerie Du Soliel once dry.  I just got one of the two books I ordered on Joan Mitchell.  She was very independent.  That I love about her.  She had no filter on her comments.  AHH not so much, but
the work alone speaks for itself.  She and Mary Abbott and a few other note worthy women artists
will be at the museum in Denver in June.  I was sad as I could not go but wonderful artist Lisa
Boardwine told me that it is traveling and will be in North Carolina.  Now I'm so happy and yes I will be going.  It is in October this year.  YEAH!!!!!!!!  So I will post the piece I did that show my love for Joan and more will come.  I don't want to lose my style so I'm careful to paint what I love and taking a few clues from her.  Every artist should have a small bag of heroes that they go to that will
push them along.  So without much more ado here it is.   ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!
