Patterns


Soft Touch, 30 x 40

Subtle color, rhythm of dark and light -- these concepts are a kind of fall pattern for me!  The brighter colors of the summer paintings no longer inspire, and I have been playing with simple shape and design.   I now think I need more PAINT, perhaps some palette knife work, not sure...but I want to shake things up!
The good news is that I finally have the month ahead to paint without travel or much distraction.  I'm excited, since I want to try some new approaches.  Perhaps I'll do some figurative work, or some simple and universal landscapes.  It should be a fine time to slip out of comfortable patterns and see what bubbles up!

  3. Soft touch is stunning! Strong, confident and beautiful! Can't wait to see what you come up with. Love that you are always working and learning and pushing- that's what keeps your work so fresh and amazing! I am starting live figure sketching tonight so can't wait to try that! All about the journey friend!!
