Expressionist Abstract Painting, Imagine Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, SOLD, 8x10 Oil Painting
Our paint group, Pieces of Eight, decided to spice up our lives a little bit, by issuing an art challenge each month. This month, the theme is "Imagine"
 |
I could not get the great John Lennon's song "Imagine" out of my mind! If fact, as I write this, I am humming the song. So, this is my interpretation. Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Check out Pieces of Eight blog and view the other entries in our challenge.
Have a great day!

Abstract Seascape Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Textured Art, SOLD
This small seascape is a study for a much larger piece. The only question in my mind is "How large?"
I am very happy with the understated color which makes the brighter hues really pop. I am not sure if it would be call an abstract or impressionistic.......what do you think?
What I do know, I really enjoyed painting it and want to try it again and go BIG!
Thanks for reading my blog today

Playing with Paint, Abstract Oil Painting, 8x8x3" Original Oil, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting SOLD
Today is gray, foggy and damp, so I decided to post the most fun painting I could find.
 | |
 I painted it on a 8x8x3" canvas, so even the shape is unique. It's chunky and cute and it resides on a bookshelf , where it brightens the whole room. I cannot help but smile each time I look at it. The canvas was a mistake. I did not realize how deep it was when I ordered it. What could I possibly do with it? Well, for this painting, I think it is perfect! Have a fantastic day!

Where Am I Going?, Small Oil Paintings, Daily Paintings
Traditionally, this time of the year, is when we evaluate our performance, over the last twelve months, and look at the direction we are headed.
I looked through my posts from last year, and picked out my favorite pieces, hoping against hope that they will tell me where I am headed.
Abstract Expressionism?
Maybe....
Thick Paint?
Impressionism?
Brushwork?
Knife?
Really thin paint?
Artistically, I see nothing but question marks. I want to have a clear plan, a path to follow and mark my progress, but alas, it evades me.
I looked through my posts from last year, and picked out my favorite pieces, hoping against hope that they will tell me where I am headed.
Abstract Expressionism?
Maybe....
Thick Paint?
Impressionism?
Really thin paint?
Or does it really matter?
All this thinking is making my head hurt!
I am happy I found this many pieces, from last year, that speak to ME. I am happy with them which makes me happy with me.
Maybe 2020 will find me treading the straight and narrow.....but somehow, I don't think so.
Thank you all, for joining me on my crazy, unplanned journey!
Hubby keeps me grounded!
