Day 16: 30 Days - 30 Paintings - Feb. 2018

Cliff Dwelling

This colorful, sheer cliffside may be the home of copper deposits, plus many beings and creatures - hard to say. :o)  What are your thoughts?

The painting is signed on the back because it is possible to enjoy it from either vertical and/or horizontal views.

Enjoy!

Day 15: 30 Days - 30 Paintings - Feb. 2018

Muted Reflection

The muted palette today appeared after a full day of rain and grey skies in the desert yesterday - an unusual experience - especially this year.  It was enjoyable to work in more quiet colors reflecting the tone of the soft light.

Enjoy!

Keep the Light Burning

I enjoyed the process of developing the colors, shapes and feel of this composition.  It began slowly and then evolved with wild and wooly abandon. 



Enjoy!

Day 10: 30 Days - 30 Paintings - Feb. 2018

Standing Tall

This painting can be viewed vertically or horizontally.  However, it totally changes character as a horizantal.  At that point, I would probably want to call it More Cowbell.   Let me know if you get that reference... :o)

Enjoy!

Colorful Cacti Category

Here is another addition to my Arizona Collection.  Winning in the Colorful Cacti Category is our very own Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. This rather colorful cactus lives in our backyard.   Although she isn't actually quite this colorful in 'real life', her soul is energetic, a bit spikey and definitely colorful!   
Enjoy!

Day 6: 30 Days - 30 Paintings - Feb. 2018

Wild Child

To my eye, the Arizona desert provides a never-ending display of beauty.  It resonates deeply with me and I do not tire of observing it around me.  This particular agave species greets us on our daily walk.  Because its 'leaves' are a bit unruly and bend and twist where ever they choose, I respectfully call it "Wild Child".  

It is the latest addition to my Arizona Collection on my website:  Come visit for a breath of warmth and sun!

Arizona Women's Expo

Join us at the Arizona Women's Expo!

If you happen to be in the Phoenix area next weekend, October 10th and 11th, feel free to join us on the Arizona Art Supply Stage at the Arizona Ultimate Women's Expo at the Phoenix Convention Center.  



I will be working with and demonstrating Golden's new Qor (pronounced 'core') watercolors both alone and in a multi-media setting.  They are  highly pigmented colors that differ from all other watercolors in that they do not contain traditional gum arabic as a binder - but instead use something called Aquazol®.  The result is a beautifully vibrant, resilient palette that can be utilized in any fine art application.

Come join in the festivities!

An Inner Piece

Today's limited color is palette is extended to four different transparent pigments: Quinacridone Burnt Orange,  Quinacridone Violet, Nickel Azo Yellow and Phthalo Blue (Green Shade).   Once again, as with an abstract painting, may be viewed in more than one way.  I chose the vertical view to best describe this inner piece of a landscape-like presentation.  

You may choose what appears most pleasing to you...

Triad

Used a limited palette of three of my favorite transparent watercolors - Quinacridone Gold, Quinacridone Magenta and Green Gold.  I wanted to allow the colors to interact but keep them clear, crisp and bright in the overlays.  The colors in the framed photo below are the most accurate.

Let It Flow

I used some fluid mask to preserve and define some of the shapes.  I especially enjoyed using Lapis watercolor to get some granulation in the blue areas.  Layered with other transparent colors to create depth and places for the eye to explore...

The Flash

Today's multimedia experience involves a watercolor underpainting and colored ink. The two play nicely together so it was an entertaining and fulfilling process.

Searching

Multimedia experience using a watercolor and ink underpainting and then pastels.  It was a challenge to strike a balance between the two mediums.  I searched for an optimal way to use the pastels to soften and blend without muting out the watercolor pigments.

Touching the Sky

Today's palette involves PrimaTek watercolors, which are mineral-based, naturally occurring pigments.  The colors are generally more subtle earth tones (I used Yavapai, Hematite Violet, Mummy Bauxite, Sedona Genuine, Kyanite Genuine, Serpentine  Genuine) plus some jewel shades (Amazonite Genuine, Rhodonite Genuine, Fuchsite Genuine and Red Fuchsite Genuine). Some are granulating and others (like the Fuchsites) are sparkly.  I appreciate the rich and earthy pigments that reflect the energy of the earth expressing through the minerals.
