Stars and Stripes

 

"Stars and Stripes"

30" x  30" x 1 1/2, Oil on Gallery-wrapped Canvas

Available

 

 

Last week, just before Christmas, I had coffee with Texas Contemporary Abstract Artist, Deanna Kienast who paints huge huge abstracts.   I'd painted several of these "close up" of the American Flag but on a small scale, six by six inches and she suggested I try a larger version.  So here it is.

It is kind of hard to tell what size this is looking at this photo of painting because all of the background is cropped out.

 

 

But here is a photo of the work-in-progress painting sitting on my easel:

 



I'd just blocked in colors.  I actually like the blocked in colors, except that the starts are not quite right yet.

 

Here is a view of a detail of the finished painting.  There are a lot of unexpected colors in the flag - such as yellow and green:

Christmas Angel Painting

"Angel, Do you See?"

14" x  11", Oil on Cradled Board

Available at Ugallery

A couple of months ago Ugallery contacted the artists to take part in their Advent Calendar special pricing by painting a Christmas/Wintry scene to be offered everyday for the 24 days of Christmas.  Mine was featured yesterday.

 

The inspiration for this painting came from the carols "Hark, the Herald, Angels Sing". and "Do you See What I See?"   The angel in my painting is heralding the good news when she sees the bright star.

 

The other day I had left a foam sheet in my front room.  This foam is left over from shipping a large painting so I didn't have any use for it.  But when I went out for about 10 minutes, my puppy, Ruby thought she'd check it out...

 

When I came home and found the foam and asked Ruby and my current foster dog, Faith what happened to it they said they didn't know, but looked pretty guilty, if you ask me....

Tango Dancers - El Bailar

"El Bailar"

9" x  12", Oil on Canvas
Available for purchase.

I wanted to try painting Tango dancers for a while.  But I painted this from the "leg"/"feet" aspect.  I like to sometimes guess what the art is about, I don't want to know the whole story, I want to fill in the blanks.

 

I heard a while back when the high definition T.V.'s were coming out that watcing HD actually made the brain get bored.  Because of all the fine details the eye sees, the brain doesn't need to "fill in the blanks" and so while seeing all the details might be exciting, the brain sometimes doesn't want to follow along in the story.  Because I'm of an age that remember B&W movies and T.V shows, I wonder then if that is why I like the old movies?

 

While we watch Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers dance in a classic movie, we don't know if she's wearing red, or blue...but it captures our attention and we watch their ever footsteps

 

I must apologize with this photo of my painting, however.  The problem with this photo is that the painting is dark and I wasn't able to take a good photo without the glare.    The areas that look like white is very subtle in the original painting.  I'll have to re-take this photo.

In the Arms of An Angel, Palette Knife Angel Painting

"In the Arms of An Angel"

20" x  20" x 1.5", Oil on Canvas

A collector contacted me about a painting I'd done of an Angel Hug and wanted me to do another but with more colors.  This is a colorful version.  I hope she will like it - fingers crossed. 

I posted this on facebook and asked for title suggestions and I like the title that I selected.  Others were "Angel Hug", "Colorful Hug".

Angels with dogs seem to be a favorite subject for my collectors.  I think we all want to know that our beloved pets are cared for when they go to heaven.
