Black and White and Fluorescent Abstract Paintings

Could this be the end?

Well, it could be the end of me working in fluorescent colors. Fluorescent and dramatic works are still some of my favorites. But I can't say I'll be in a big hurry to paint with them again. Because the pigment can fade so fast, the artwork requires a lot of extra time - and fumes - to coat with special varnish so that the fluorescent paint won't fade.

There are just a few pieces left in the series. You may want to grab one before they are gone forever. Maybe you can still snag that one you've been thinking of? Have a look.

Censer

300.00

Dark mysteries and the lifting of spirits. Censer is a work of art that evokes thoughts of renewal.

Censer is a painting on paper which has been mounted to a 1.5” deep cradled wood board. I’ve created this using black, gold and fluorescent yellow and fluorescent orange acrylic paints. I’ve carefully coated the painting with a UV-protective coating which has been proven to protect the fluorescent pigment. The sides of the wood support have been waxed with a matte wax to protect their natural beauty..

This artwork has been wired and is ready to hang.

Dimensions: 11” x 14” x 1.5”

Medium: Acrylic on Paper, Mounted to Maple Panel

Fresh Abstract Paintings With A New Focus

It’s been quiet around here - too quiet.

Well, I’ve been quiet but I’ve been working up a storm.

I recently got a bottle of Stuart Semple’s Black 2.0. It is one of the blackest blacks and is super duper matte. It looks fantastic against vivid colors and glossy surfaces. I’ve been using it to create designs that remind me of looking through a fence or lattice work.

Look for the next series which will focus on protection and safety.

If you need me I won’t be here

Social Media is eating my soul. The heartbreaking news releases and selfish squabbling in the comments section is making me ill. 

The best way to deal with this is to simply stay away from social media that gets me into trouble - I’m talking to you, Mr. Book and you, Bitchy Blue Birdie. 

If you’re looking for me in a social app, you will find me on Instagram where I show you behind the scenes shots of my studio as well as works in progress and finished paintings - THAT is where the online fun is right now.

Please stop by and say “hello”!

Hot Off the Easel Bold Abstract Painting

Here is a hot-off-the-easel painting.

It’s one of those things that I figured would never work out. But I kept at it and even tried to ruin it - and then after I tried to wreck it, it told me it was done. Oh, such fickle paintings!

Still seeking a title for this abstract piece!  

Peek in my studio

Here’s a peek at my easel. But I also paint on a table, the wall and the floor. I like to have a variety of surfaces at work at once. I’m currently working on six different paintings.

Make sure you get on the list to see the finishes pieces first!

Happy Abstract Art in Pink and Yellow

I love the contrast of the pink and yellow against the bold black areas in this painting.

I’m still working out a name for it, but I’m feeling very attached to a name related to beach umbrellas. Add this to your collection. Buy it here.

Abstract Paintings Back In The Studio

It was a happy homecoming as I returned my paintings from Darker Joys back into the studio. I’m especially fond of a newer piece, “Head of Honey”. This is an 18” x 24” painting that packs a lot of power in it’s mid-sized canvas.

It took so long to finish this one. I had almost given up on it but worked the many layers until it came to life.

A Painting About Candy & Kittens

Who doesn’t love candy and kittens?

Who doesn't love candy or kittens? This is painting about some of my favorite things - puppies will be up next, I'm sure.

Candy and Kittens is a playful abstract painting of "candyful" colors peeking through a maze of white. This abstract painting features a range of springtime colors such as light green, pink, gentle orange and sweet pinks. Playful kittenish elements add to the fun of this painting. The sides are painted black and I’ve already wired it so you pop this one right one the wall as soon as you get it home.

What are your favorite things?
