Morning Prayers

"Morning Prayers"
22" x 28"
Oil on wrapped canvas
Color basted morning like butter over a turkey. 

I've been painting, in spite of the appearance of my blog. I painted fifteen skies on one large canvas over the past several days. I used a limited palette of two reds, two blues, two yellows and white to make up this prayerful piece.

Ornamental Cabbage


"Ornamental Cabbage"
8" x 8"
Acrylic mixed media

I was drawn to the marks of found Asian symbols used in lines, in squares, and overprinted. Without knowing what they actually read, I was brave to place them in the corners of my composition.

My color photo of ornamental cabbage dictated the colors for this piece. I've become good at tearing edges.  It's a skill I never thought I'd want or need to master. But I'm in it now.

Thank you for taking a few moments to view my art today.
