| "Toulouse, Your Moose Is Loose" 24" x 24" Oil on wrapped canvas |
It was Saint Patrick's Day and I was in the produce department of my grocery store when I saw a guy ripping leaves off cabbages. I nearly rammed him with my cart to save this particular one from being scalped. "He's subject matter!" I declared. Once I had it in my possession I realized he would need companions, so I collected a turnip, red onion, egg plant, tangerines, tulips and added daffodils to the mix. Then I filled in with a few miscellaneous items... including my moose.
Tonight Toulouse, Your Moose Is Loose will be featured in a gallery opening called Recent Works. He was juried into the show and will hang for a month. This was my first painting done with my handmade, English, Rosemary & Company brushes. What a sweet ride that was!
Toulouse will be listed with, and for sale through a Daily Paintworks auction during the same month as Recent Works.
Thank you for stopping by today. I really appreciate your comments and e-mails.
