Hi there!
I have so much art to show you, tons to catch up on, but I'll start off small.
This is a sweet mini painting I just did this week. It's on a 5x5 inch gallery-wrapped canvas.
I'm running low on my blank canvas stash, but in cleaning my studio recently, I noticed that I have many old pieces that I never finished for various reasons... so I decided to either finish them or completely paint over them and start again. This is one of the starting over pieces. I originally did an experimental collage on it that wasn't turning out how I wanted, and I didn't know how to finish it, so it sat unfinished for over a year. The great thing about using these unfinished canvases is that they already have a great texture to them! I added to the texture of this by gluing a few more bits of paper down, then painted over most of it with colors that called to me. I finished it off by drawing and writing on it with a water-soluble pencil, then sealed the whole thing.
It felt good to get one of these unfinished paintings out of a drawer, and give it a new life ... ready to be seen and hung on someones wall! Now I'm moving on to another unfinished one that's been calling my name!
