Not So Different ...Just BIG

As my dog, Wing, will attest, going big is just like any other day in the studio.  Well in this case, the garage.  Don’t think I could get this big boy up the stairs into my studio and I know I would not be able to get that needed far away perspective.

So I guess location is a bit of a change.

From Little Guys to Big Boys

I have gotten the opportunity to exhibit some very large pieces, which gave me the perfect excuse to jump waaaay up in scale.  

Back of the envelope cipherin’ tells me that this 5’x4’ canvas is approximately 80 times bigger than the gesso boards  I have been working with recently....

cool.

I just love how making art creates such positive challenges....

...like how to drive with this sticking out the back...

Do Blondes Have More Fun?

My creative outlet has taken a bit of a turn this spring.  I have been making frames for my studio challenge pieces (aka “My Little Guys”) 

But still need to decide something...

Black or blonde for my frames?

If it’s black, it’s more materials and steps.  But with the blonde, I have to cut much more precisely since the wood putty would show.

It is a nice problem to have.  Either way these paintings will be posted for sale on BuyRVAart.com starting May 15th!
