Casual talks with myself about my painting process as a visual artist in the studio.... and goings on around our rural place on Johnson Creek.

Finally finished
That painting I was lamenting over not long ago is finally finished. I could think of nothing to title it other than "Excavation".........pun could be meant here since there was a lot of that going on while painting this one. It sure went through the "uglies". But it also reminds me of excavation of other kinds as well since there is some of that going on around this area with gas and oil exploration and coal mining.

Oh wow, Cheryl. Very beautiful piece. Don't we all go through the uglies in a painting. I know I have had my fair share.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Glenda. It's a bit unusual for color "for me" with the grayed browns. But that's one of the things I guess that is good about getting away from a comfort zone in your painting. Worthwhile in the end.
ReplyDeletevery nice! you should be pleased with the way it came out!
ReplyDeleteI love it, Cheryl. Nice with the grayed browns playing against the red.
ReplyDeleteI like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys. I went off to the farm and the dial up is so slow that I couldn't get in to make a comment to your comments. Back home now for a few days at least.
ReplyDeleteLooking back over your blog has been fun...I've been a fan for so long of your art and those "reds" you do. This is a great piece! Now that I found your blog I must add your link on mine.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, Joy. I'll probably be painting a lot of green now that I returned from Umbria......lots of greens there for sure.
