Reaching

Long time no update........this year has been a pretty bland artistic one for me so far. My site unfortunately is still not operational and not much time has been given to creative whims. Well until a month ago that is. I have finally given myself a shake and picked up my paint brushes again. My wonderful husband gifted me with a new easel and some canvases for our anniversary and the spark has lit up again to paint. There's always something about new "tools" that get the creative juices flowing again. Since my daughter's mural I haven't really painted much up until this piece and another one is being worked on as recently as today.

*side note: Leigh's mural is complete and new pictures will be posted for the completed piece. I've also started work on a mural for my son which I will start posting about in the next week or two once all the back to school excitement has completely died down


Reaching is a larger piece, 16 x 20 inches to be exact and is painted with acrylic over stretched canvas. I was able to play with some additive that gives it the consistency and drying time of oils and managed some interesting overlapping effects with it. Thanks for looking and continuing to follow. I'll be sure to update you regarding my latest piece as soon as it's completed, stay tuned!
