Moons Over the Desert

"Moons Over the Desert"
10" x 10"
Acrylic mixed media
Certain parts of the world are privy to Dual Moonality.  Usually they're located in the deserts of continents that have deserts, but from my studio, I occasionally get peeks at places just like this painting.  I love being an artist!  It affords me such luxurious privileges. 

This is one in a series of mixed media pieces I'll be posting over the next few days.  I painted the paper, tore it and shot the photos.  The leaf was in my yard, and I stenciled the decorative stuff with joint compound.  I repeat... I love being an artist.  

Come back tomorrow for more fun stuff!

Featherly

"Featherly"
40" x 30"
Acrylic/collage on canvas
The background appeared to me in dream-form two mornings in a row.  I could feel my arm wiping on the Golden Brand Indian Yellow with a sponge, adding red to it as I traversed the canvas from top to bottom.  And laughing at the thought of feathers wakened me each time.

I owned the canvas.  I had a mixed bag of feathers and the rest was created while I was fully awake, but only with the right side of my brain.  I painted big squares and small ones, tore scraps of waxpaper I had painted with metallics, glued, painted, layered and rubbed in shadows.  A mere 106 glued and painted feathers later, "Featherly" was finished.  He's one of a kind. There aint no more.

This piece is listed with, and for sale through a Daily Paintworks auction, or by PayPal.
