Here's a sketch for the creepy Auntie in "Auntie Says Phoenix Needs to Improve". She's very annoying to me ... which is the point, I guess. We were originally using Grandma .... but grandmas aren't logically creepy. But AUNTIES .... everybody has a creepy auntie!
Phoenix, Quantum Superhero, featured first in "Auntie Says Phoenix Needs to Improve".
a little oil sketch of the Amazing Phoenix from some time ago
So excited to be back on the river ... in Columbus Georgia. Gotta love a studio with giant north lights, a kitchen at one end, and a workshop downstairs.
I think my Totality Week Adventure is finally coming to a close .... gosh I hope so. These three sketches, oil on paper, are based on basically the same image of the 21 August eclipse, during the two and half minutes of totality. For some reason I couldn't work the image out of my mind's eye. So I just kept painting it.
Here's a little cozy for my friend Meg Winston Macfadyen. Fourteen years ago, her Art & Invention Gallery created, just for fun, the midsummer Tomato Art Festival. It is now one of Nashville's most popular events, and features original tomato-themed art by fine artists from around the world. This is my second year participating .... this time with a little painting of Meg's cat, Dr. Nutty.
Completed March 2017.
At this stage the Armenian textile is finished, but the rest of the piece is still underway.
