be strong...



i painted most of my day today ... here is one of the six inch canvases i completed ...
i like to put good words on these little canvases ....so they'll be happy reminders in whatever home they end up in .... i think i put be strong today because i was so sore from exercising this morning .... so ...it's meant to be encouraging, but at the moment, it might have been a titch complainy .... so it goes .... hopefully the future owner of this painting won't know about my monday morning exercise woes ....

and here's a giganto canvas ... it used to be another painting ... that i've never sold and have grown tired of ... so ... i put a world map on it and painted the edges raw umber and glazed the map old world brown .... i believe i am going to do brown (or maybe light blue ... or turquoise) stenciling and stamping on it before i put on an as of yet undetermined foreground .....
i have a show on thursday, so hopefully i'll get a few more paintings done this week before then .. stay tuned ....

happy painting!

a reminder to be strong is always a good thing, no matter where the inspiration comes from.

More excellentness!! Yes, bright colors, good words, and productivity... makes life good. I painted and cut and doodled all weekend! Got lots done. In the zone is great.

thinking about going back to some collage! Maybe with paint too....need a shot of excitement in the studio! Your two pieces make me want to go back to messing with scraps of paper!
