Hey friends,
I just realized I haven’t posted since December, how time flies! January tends to be a quiet month for me, but this year I’ve been busy traveling, catching up with visiting friends and working on new projects.
It’s 2010 and there are so many things I want to do this year! I have always been the kind of person who wants to do everything, but what really drives me is the desire to experiment with materials and ideas in order to create beautiful things. I’m excited to see what I will dream up this year and what projects will finally come to fruition. I think it’s time to tie up a lot of loose ends leftover from 2009.
I started painting again, it’s been a while. I’ve been so busy crafting three dimensional objects that I’ve been neglecting the two dimensional world of images. This year I hope to balance my creative practices and make more drawings and paintings.
So here’s the new one, fresh. It’s 4 by 5 inches, just a wee one. I was working on this one originally for a show, but since this month was so surprisingly busy I didn’t get the chance to finish it until recently.
The surface of most of the figure and landmass is matte, while the sky and lake is painted with layers of shiny gel and iridescent paint. The image seems to change with different levels of light, when it fluctuates the surface of the painting seems to do so as well. Please click through the images below for a closer look.
