Blue Cans



18x24 oil on canvas sold

$200









I love the bright colors at carnivals - can't stand to be at them, but always check them out before or after to see all the tents. (I'm not ready to let go of summer yet.)






I just got back from a great trip to California to visit family and see an amazing show. Jay Farrar put Jack Kerouac's Big Sur to music and put out an album with Ben Gibbard as an offshoot of the new documentary One Fast Move Or I'm Gone, and they had a short tour. Talk about artistry, and a very haunting story - absolutely beautiful.

Phone Pole


8x8 oil on canvas
nfs

I just confirmed this morning that I'm doing a show in May at my favorite restaurant here in Athens. Yay! It's a great venue for art because not only does the artwork look good on the walls, but everybody in town goes to Casa to eat or drink at least once a week, so the artwork gets great exposure.


This painting goes with on that I did this summer (July 15th post), and hope to do more of a series of. I like them as 8x8s, but I think they will look good larger too. I just can't decide how much larger yet. For some reason, anything I paint on 12x12 doesn't work as well, so I'm thinking I've got to go up to 16" or 20". I don't know, I'm still thinking about it.

Blue Pot

This one was so much fun to do. It was one of those that didn't look like it was working the entire time I was painting, then when I stepped back to look, voila-it had all come together to make an image.
