Floating 02/22/2024

Thanks Jim Magner for writing about my work!

Floating Some paintings are a seductive opening to an inner world: imagination. It’s like reading the opening lines in a work by Edgar Allen Poe, Ray Bradbury or Stephen King. It can be a leap into the unexplored possibilities of existence. It is your reach to the spirit world.

Baby’s first day in the studio! We’ll see how this goes . . . 🤞

I felt too awful to work for my entire pregnancy, and I’m SO happy to be energetic and creative again.

It’s been awhile, but I haven’t gone anywhere. I was busy making this. Her name is Vivian and she’s 9 days old. Hope to sharpen my rusty drawing skills in these early days, and paintings will happen again eventually. ❤️

Swipe through to see the stages this tie went through yesterday. Just a few more layers and this part will be done!

Sometimes I have to re-transfer my lines between paint layers if things have gotten shifty. Do you have any questions about my process? I’ll try to answer them later today!

My older phone auto “corrects” the color to make it far more cool and washed-out than it really is, but that’s what imagination is for!

Swipe through for process shots of this painting!

I only took two photos when it was on the easel, so I included some of my reference photos. I created this imaginary child’s face with morphing software. I used about 8 different photos I got online and morphed them together in various percentages until the face was exactly how I wanted it. Then I used the morphed image and a bunch of other photos as reference for the painting.

I have an essay about one of my favorite paintings, Young Girl with a Dead Bird, on the Painters on Paintings blog!
My painting, Young Girl with a Dead Phone, was inspired by it.

These figures will fade into the shadowy background and be barely noticeable when this big painting is done! Right now they’re an entire world. A few more glazes and details, and they’ll be done.
