Streets Outside of Rome

24 x 24

Mixed Media on Canvas

Inspired by some photos I took on a trip to Italy

This street cafe was located in a small town just outside Rome.

The quaint picturesque streets were something I wanted to remember

I created this piece for our kitchen nook....

letting go of the typical traditional style italian earth tone colors

I was more interested to create something for the space that had some bold pop

Creating a loose and colorful paint strokes

not worried about realistic details I applied paint in a variety of brush sizes and

used a palette knife to be sure I couldn't control every detail.

However, I still can look down the street and can feel the same as when I was there.

We sat out on the small tables on the cobblestone street for dinner.

We looked up at the laundry hanging on the line,

the small villa at the end of the street is the

actual space where we spent the last night.

I can look at the piece and it can take me right back to

laughing with family,

eating homemade bread

while sipping a glass of the local vino.

What's better?

The sides of the gallery wrapped canvas although not shown above

is wrapped with a variety of photos I had taken on the trip

The cobblestone street is applied with the texture of torn paper with

printed lyrics of my favorite Dean Martin Song... an Evening in Roma!!

What fun!

Although not the typical realistic version, I created a fun memorable piece,

and when I look at it in my kitchen it reminds me of the great time we had on our trip!

Pencil and Charcoal Drawing

As a former collegiate basketball player,

I am always excited to render athletes.

Doesn't everyone have some sort of

competitive drive and

know's what it feels like

to want to be successful?

What it's like to practice day in and day out

What it takes to do it on the days you don't feel like it

What it means to want to be the best

What it means to compete.

What it feels like to win

and to want that feeling again and again.

I have been drawing for years

And there is always something special

about taking a

blank piece of paper,

and a pencil,

and

making

something

happen.

Karen Raven quote

Mixed Media Collage

Something about creating these little collage pieces

brings me great joy.

The colors, the ideas,

the design process,

and also the thought

someone is going to receive it

and in their heart

they will feel good.

I love this quote

by Karen Raven

and have used it in another piece.

"Only as high as i reach can i grow,

Only as far as i seek can i go.

Only as deep as i look can i see,

Only as much as i dream can i be."

What is your joy?

Do you ever have that feeling or voice inside say

"I am meant to do this".

That's what I feel when I come up with an idea

or I create a new piece of art.

I continue to learn and practice

and try new mediums.

And I may not necessarily create a masterpiece...

but deep down,

I know I'm moving in the right direction.

My wish is you find that voice inside that tells you

what your meant to do

and it is from a higher sense of spirit.

I know that my best pieces of artwork

comes from that place deep inside...

it is a driving force beyond

my mere existence...

I'm simply here to bring it into the world.

Hopefully you are also doing the same!

Pastel Paper

Ok, well, not what I had intended...

Found a photo my mom took at Monet's actual garden.

My parents went there on a trip to France a few years ago.

How awesome to find those photos now!

The idea was to render a likeness of the photo in pastel.

I started. Got frustrated.

Ready to scrape it...

Didn't want to start all over again,

waste the pastel paper

or time I had already put in it.

So I sprayed what I had done.

Now I really didn't like it,

but thought it had a decent fundamental base

for an underpainting.

I don't even know if you can or should do it.

But I did anyway.

I painted over the drawing.

I'm sorry Mr. Monet...

lol

He would be shaking his head, I'm sure.

We can only get better when we keep practicing!

As the master himself said:

"It's on the strength of observation and reflection

that one finds a way.

So we must dig and delve unceasingly."

-Claude Monet-

Disaster or not...

it's all part of the process.

Monet painted in his garden in the same spot sometimes

4-6 times...

No master go there overnight...

they had amazing work ethic.

One day,

I hope,

it will all come together!

Asked to tackle this piece as a retirement gift...

I worked from two reference photos.

One was of the property and one was of the subjects

headed back from a hunting trip.

I tore edges of a large piece of watercolor paper

stretched it on a board.

Started sketching the landscape and figured out

how I could get the figures worked in as though they fit naturally.

Once I liked the composition

I layed in an underpainting in watercolor.

Then began to apply the layers of pasel,

starting with hard nupastel

and working up to soft sennelier and rembrant.

Believe it or not,

spring is just around the corner.

Inspired to create that spring feeling today...

my favorite time of the year.

Everything is pretty in the spring.

Flowers bloom, the sun shines

and there is that fresh smell in the air

summer coming.

When I think of spring cleaning,

I don't really think of washing windows.

I think of a renewal of spirit.

A time to wake from winter with a new vibrance for life.

Get out and ride a bike,

take a walk,

go on a picnic...

appreciate the simplicity

of enjoying a sunny day.

When spring and flowers come to mind

so does

kindness

harmony

compassion

patience

and

love.

Hope the sun is peeking out for you today!

"How many a man has thrown up his hands

at a time when a little more effort,

a little more patience

would have achieved success"

-Elbert Hubbard-

Patience... waiting... seeking...

When walking through a small town

I saw from a distance a buisness man waiting

for a street car on the corner.

Most people may not find this facinating.

I did.

I was compelled and inspired to do something with that scene

How many times in life we wait.

We wait in line at the grocery store,

for the plane to take off,

or to simply use the restroom.

On a bigger scale

We wait for job offers,

for lab results,

the right person to come along,

our bank account to fill up to a certain number.

Terminally ill to pass,

expecting mothers to give life.

We wait.

Sometimes patiently,

sometimes not.

Waiting is a part of what we do.

Sometimes we don't wait when we should,

sometimes we wait too long.

Sometimes we need to take an initiative, not to wait.

We know that success can mean doing the small things

everyday we are given a chance to work at reaching our potential.

Where is your happiness?

Are you still waiting for it...

or are you making it happen?

How can you best serve the world today.

What are meant to be?

Are you waiting for the answer...

seek, find, do.

I chose to title this piece Number 9

Waiting on street car 9.

9 happens to be a number that symbolizes patience.

It also represents inspiration and the perfection of ideas

it is the number of achievement and harmony.

"if people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery,

it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all."

Human Spirit

Charcoal Figure Drawing

In Nakedness lies the

truth of the Human Spirit...

what is your truth?

Today I am reflecting on drawings

i found in my art studio from

a figure drawing class i took in Italy years ago.

What is more romantic than to think of Italy today!

The food, the wine, what's not to love??!!

The gestural drawings where done in a swift 60 seconds

The purpose is too look only at the outside (contour of the figure)

and draw as quick as you can in less than a minute

before the model changes positions.

Talk about stress for a portrait artist!!!

You have to leave out all details and only worry about big shapes.

But as I look at them now years later...

I see so much more than an outline.

I can see the big picture.

I think we can all relate to a figure drawing to some degree.

It represents a raw human appeal and spirit...

it's not about naked body parts, it's about human form

"We are not human beings on a spiritual journey.

We are spiritual beings on a human journey."

-stephen R. covey

When succombed to outside pressures we put on ourselves...

Let's take a look internally to our heart and find our purpose

to best serve those around us.

"The divine spirit does not reside in any except the joyful heart."

-talmud quotes-

Hope everyones heart is full of joy on this valentine's day.

Where is your naked truth

and what is it

that you have

to offer

the

world?

-Basil-

Completely open to anything today, I found an old photo

I had snapped one day in St. Petersburg of an outdoor cafe/coffee shop.

There were other people in the photo...

but I really liked focusing in on the one woman in a

thoughtful spot under the tree.

She was enjoying a book and having a cup of joe.

Without spending lots of time

I did a quick sketch of what I wanted with Ink

on a small piece of pastel paper.

I added a bit of color with hard and soft pastels.

Sprayed the drawing, but felt like I could do more with it.

I applied adhesive and mounted the paper onto a piece of old canvas.

I then applied some layers of acrylic paint in different directions and green values.

I liked what was coming out,

but wanted to add a quote or text to tie

more ink into the piece.

I found this quote I loved and painted it in.

What are we really without kindness we give and

recieve to our family, friends and even complete strangers?

All good things are rooted in kindness.

And when you have this in your soul,

you can completely savor

every moment

of life...

and you can truly feel content in those quiet moments,

like the feeling you get from a sunny morning

with a good book and cup of coffee!

Always seeking inspiration... i picked up the Somerset Studio

magazine... the art of paper and mixed media...

Such fabulous artists featured.

I decided to do come up with my own version.

A mix of painting, written text, papers and paint!
First I found some colorful papers and cut out shapes
Firgured out composition and design elements
Painted the canvas background colors,
added paper with medium
then added written text
and strokes of paint over paper
Framed the sides of the canvas
with pieces of ripped paper
It's ready to hang without a frame!!!

Through the committment to this blog,

I am working and exploring mediums and techniques

I would not normally have tried.

I'm excited.

Driven by endless possiblilties,

excited to do more...
and
daring

"Everyone discusses my art and

pretends to understand,

as if it were necessary to understand,

when it is simply necessary to love."
Claude Monet

Reference photo I took was of a wild patch of flowers in New England.

I loved the bright bold colors and wanted to see if I could capture some of them.

Loved Monet's work of Wild Poppies and

Jeanne-Marguerite Lecadre in the Garden

So I thought I'd try to do the blooms in a

quick impressionistic technique...

not quite like Monet (of course)...lol

but good to practice anyhow!!!

I painted a light blue background color for sky

and added a mass of green along the bottom.

Painted in some trees and added leaves and blooms

by dabbing on a variety of color ontop of background

then added some stems for flowers in a variety of green mixtures.

I could get used to this style of painting!!!

Monet is truly a master, an inspiration

and truly loved!!!

After a bit more of color and value study,

I'll try and try again!

Check back soon!!!

Newsprint and Acrylic on Canvas

"Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest,

heals the heart and makes it whole,

flows from heaven to the soul"

-author unkown-

Inspired by a photo I took in New Orleans.

I used the same type of method of mixed medium,

the newsprint in the background is actually an inspiring article

I found about a local youth church band.

The symbolic meaning of them included in this piece is two-fold.

The importance of music in our community,

what it means to develop musical talent and skills in our children

so they can express themselves creatively

and also to represent the inspiration of how Jazz music

is the foundation, heart and soul of New Orleans.

The power of music from the soul can move us to emotion,

set a mood, bring back a memory, and instill hope!

Rarely is there a time I sit down to paint

without putting on some of my favorite tunes!

"Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them."

-Orison Swett Marden-

I love this quote...

so many times life is what you make of it...

it's up to you.

Find out what you enjoy to do and do it!

I've used this many times so far in life, here are just a few examples.

When I dreamed of playing basketball in college I went to the driveway and shot baskets.

When I dreamed of making wedding cakes I got some books and ingredients and baked.

When I dreamed to being an artist, I found instructions, supplies, practiced and went to italy.

I've used this theory on and on...

And if they don't have it...

Start it!

Anything is possible.

For this piece I was drawn to another photo taken at the beach in San Clemente, CA

A scene you see at most any beach, completely ordinary, I was excited to add another dimension to the scene with pieces of torn fabric and papers to make it extraordinary.

Layers of acrylic paint were added with a brush and palette knife to keep it loose. I wanted to imply the figures but not an idenity I left out details in the faces...

so they could insinuate just about any child playing in the sand!

When you look up close there are patterns of fish peeking through in the water on the paper and the fabric pattern in the sand looks like a vintage scroll pattern. I chose to use the cursive text paper as well by the figures to represent how they would be chit chatting together while they play in the sand.

It was fun design process and liked using the bold summer colors in the

umbrella and the beach chair with a towel thrown on top!

Don't let everyday be ordinary...

Be your best today... who knows what tomorrow brings...

Everyday can be a day at the beach!

Ok, so it takes a bit of juggling at times, but aside from commissioned work, and as a busy stay at home mom I have instructed classes at a painting studio in St. Petersburg, Fl called Painting With a Twist... they are opening another location in Tampa!

The Grand Opening is Thursday Jan. 13th. The photos above are decorative paintings I did for them inside the studio. I painted their Black Dress design on the ladies room door and the logo on the studio wall along with their tag line:

A Little Paint...A Little Wine... and a Whole Lot of Fun!!!

It's an awesome place to have a party, get together with friends for a fun night out, or help raise money for a local charity with their monthly Painting With A Purpose class!

You don't have to have any painting experience, just show up and have some fun!!

There are over 600 designs in their database and the calendar changes every month with new paintings!

The best part is walking away with your own 16 x 20 painting!

It's a great fun and I love my time there being able to share some of my ability as an artist, meeting great people and helps me to keep my creativity flowing!

I am so grateful to be able to work at what I love to do!

Working there has given me time to really have fun with paint, and now in my own work be able to explore color and acrylic painting and mixed medium on another level for my commissioned pieces!

Hope you come join me sometime with friends...

Acrylic on Canvas Panel

Having cleaned out my art room to make space and get organized for the new year...

I stumbled across some old paintings I had done a couple years ago...

looking at them now, I thought...

wow, I think I could make that much better.

So I used the original painting as an underpainting and went to work...

originally it had a black background and gray table...

had a blah look just the pears in a light gray bowl.

First thing I did was change the color of the background with a chocolate color

and added a beige tone to the table.

Then I decided the pears looked lonely in the bowl...

they needed some other friends.

I added the lemon and cherries to give another dimension of color to the painting.

I then changed the color of the bowl to some darker shades of blue

and added some in the shadow and added some other greens to the pears...

it was like giving them a complete makeover.

The original was just taking up space in storage

I am far happier with the painting now than the original,

... well at least till next year!!! ;)

Next time I do this I will be sure take a photo of the before so you can see all of the differences,

it is now a completely different painting than what I started with!

The point is that it is fun to see how far you come

and with some practice and learning new technique

you can actually see your progress when you look back

I realize i need to continue to practice mixing colors,

but the fun part of exploring is to mix away and see what you get.

It's all part of the journey.... enjoy it!!!

Lazy Daisies

Mixed Media Collage

I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.

Pablo Picasso

This quote embodies the result of today's piece.

I started with a photo of daisies I had taken during the summer.

Something fun about painting daisies on a gray winter day!

I had tossed around some ideas of mixed media and then an idea totally changed the piece.

Since daisies make me think of spring and summer, I found some design papers, one happened to have an old bike and the others had cursive writing...

(as though summer letters you would write to a far away friend).

I tore up the papers into different sizes and
layed them out on illustration board.

Working like this is completely different than sketching
out a subject and then painting it.

I enjoyed the design process of letting the paper create a

background effect and then started the various layers of the piece.

It was a different way to figure out the composition.

Next step was to add some strokes of acrylic paint in various colors and directions, but carefully allowing some of the decorative paper to peek through as another element to the background.

Then I was ready to incorporate the daisies...

I chose two daisies I liked best out of the photo and painted them in quickly with small brushes, trying not to worry about too much realistic detail.

Since I only had an hour for today's piece this process allowed me to think quickly in a new way. Keeping it simple and colorful was today's goal!!

I'm excited to try this approach again with some new pieces...

and using new techniques...

one day at a time!!

Follow your heart and let new ideas become something completely different!

Brush and Palette Knife

As a self-taught artist one of the ways I continue to progress and improve is by going to various workshops across the country. I try to pick one per year that would really make an
impact on my work and development as an artist.
In doing this, researching the right artist and location that would benefit you the best is essential.
This past year in June 2010 I chose national award winning pastelist Sally Strand.
She was fabulous teacher, everything you could ever want and expect out of a few days of intensive training!It was inspirational, motivational and I walked away feeling like I really got something out the experience.
Even if I don't figure out how to apply all I learned till next year, it was completely worth it!
One of the best parts of the trip was the quaint picturesque town of San Clemente...
and of course, having my sister come along for support and fun times!
While I learned diligently in the studio,
she went for walks, took in the local sights,
and researched the best places in town for good eats!
One of coolest parts of San Clemente is the local surfers looking to catch the next wave of the day!
Trying to take home a piece of our trip, she snapped a photo of a local surfer at the beach heading down to the water for what was I'm sure his favorite part of the day. We were amazed at the amount of surfers around town and it seemed like every age from small children to senior citizens would find time
to 'catch a wave'! What a life!
I found the photo last night and thought I would try and
see if I could get it to work on a canvas size I have never attempted! After all, it's all about trying new things!
The original photo was a landscape of the beach, so cropping it to work in the focal point of the surfer in a narrow horizontal shape was a bit challenging, but fun and I'm pretty pleased with the end result!
There will be other paintings to come inspired by our trip last year!!!
Thanks for your visit...
hope today you find your inner spirit of creativity in ways you never thought of!

New ventures for 2011...
Palette knife painting
Acrylic on Canvas
8 x 11
Starting the new year feeling inspired by a photo I had taken at Rye Beach, New Hampshire this past summer... thought I would continue off from yesterday with another boat painting. When I took the photo it was a misty gray day and the boat was off in the distance...there was something calming about watching it out on the water.
The point of the quick painting today was to paint in a limited palette using only a palette knife to apply colors. Using quick short strokes to render the sail boat without too much detail...
since I usually do portrait work in pencil and very fine details, it is refreshing to completely alter the creative process and think only about the big blocks of color without many layers and working in loose strokes allowing the paint to create the image in stead of my hand.
Thanks for stopping by....

Happy New Year!!

Best advice so far for the new year:

Continue to do one thing really well...

Stop doing one thing you don't enjoy...

Start something new you always wanted to do!!

We all have new year resolutions, some we stick to, some we don't.

Getting inspired to get to an easel for a short time everyday is what I hope to achieve in the next year (which could be a bit unrealistic) so, ok, maybe every-other day... but since it's Jan. 1st and the motivation is there to do something different, I'm goin with it!

My plan is to begin a series of small quick one to two hour paintings in a

variety of mediums as often as I can.

What better way to practice than to do it daily...

My journey as an artist is never-ending,

hopefully I will set out to learn a whole lot more,

get a bit improved as I go, and see where the wind blows me!!!!

Be sure to check back in and see what's at my easel!!
