Gallery Art Shows

 

 

This little blog of mine has been neglected for far too long and if you have been stopping by and reading my older posts I thank you very much!

I have been busy, with four back to back group shows. I am so blessed to be a part of a few artist groups and all the participating artists are so talented and amazing people to know. 

I have been playing around with a new technique for me, I'm trying to loosen up and develop a different style. I'm calling this a impressionistic/pointillism type style. 

 This was my section of the gallery wall at Live 4 Art in the lovely village of Pawling, NY. We will be back there in October.  The small riverscape sold, thank you Mary!

This series of tiny birds is currently in the Spring Pop-up at Mid Hudson Arts on rt.44 in Poughkeepsie along with a few other artworks and pendants.

This saw whet owl is also in that show.

Just smile nice I asked.....lol!

And I did some target shooting and this is currently on display on my refrigerator :)

I hope you all have an amazing week!

On My Drawing Table

My local arts council has a members show every year in August and this year the

theme is: Flights of Fantasy

So, with my proclivity to things with wings, immediately an owl in flight came to mind. How to incorporate fantasy into my work took lots of thought and planning.

With all the vintage papers floating around in my studio I knew that I wanted to use that in my artwork and also acrylic painting. There was a cradled wood board that I had prepped earlier leaning up against the bookcase and that became my canvas.

After sketching out the barn owl I began to cut individual pieces of paper and arrange them along the wing span.

That quickly became cut and glue and put in place, I trusted that all would work out.

 

The first wing was amazing and so it continued....

Just loving this....

I was so busy painting that not many more photos got taken.
