Canvas and sensitivity ....

Sometimes you just have to send someone a hug from god ....

I had fun with collage, acrylic paint and pastels on box canvas and sent this off to a friend eager to here and see ...

And in return, they blessed my day!

bound for the new portland arts centre ...

mary admires them, and now my old 'could have fooled me too' entries are going into a christmas exhibition ...

can you see how i have tweeked one of the pictures?

i hope the wonderful phil is happy with them now ...

i feel that these paintings are finished now ...

i shall just have to wait and see what phil says about them ...

i brought them outside to get a good luck at the colours, as they change so much with the lighting and the weather in doors ...

it has been good fun painting something with some one else in mind, and reminds me of doing my projects at art collge and uni! those were the days ...

mixed media painting, more WIP pics ...

i have added more muted colours to these canvases.
the 'death of marat' painting is next to one from two years ago, with much brighter colours!

WIP round-up - painting progress - and a jointed dormouse ....

im adding a little paint to the three canvases when i can - paint things and baby mary don't mix!




the dormouse will hopefully apear in a real gallery in a plush show all about alice in wonderland. i plan to make the mouse and a teapot too ...

the set of three paintings is progressing, with all the fabric added now ...

WIP painting progress - mostly collage ....

you can see my fox front feet peeping out from under the death of marat !
