I was having website problems again yesterday, so I wasn’t able to post that I worked on this piece. I did the stitching on it, in places around the photo. Then today I finished several pieces, and painted the sides of the canvases. I really had trouble deciding if this […]

Today, I painted the sides of the small pieces that I’ve finished. Not very creative really, but it’s one of those necessary steps in finishing pieces on stretched canvas. I was going to varnish them today too, but I got busy . . . I’ve been spending a lot of time doing computer work […]

Today I had a strong urge to start a new, big piece. But I decided that would really be just a way to avoid making decisions on the pieces I’ve got in progress. I’ve got so many I’m working on right now, and I need to get some finished for Final Friday–which is my town’s […]

Today I worked more on these two pieces, adding more paint. I’m wondering if I should add some light color washes to the flowers, or leave that part untouched. I really love this photo, so I want to keep it as the focus. So I want to keep the colors in the border light, […]

I did more image transfers today. I wanted to do some on 6″ x 8″ canvases, but I didn’t have any blank ones. What I did have were a bunch where I had only painted the backgrounds. And they’ve just been sitting there. Uninspiring. So I covered 2 with gesso so I could use […]

This morning, I printed some of my photos onto canvas to use in my artwork. And that’s all I got done. Printing the photos always takes longer than I think–not because I do any altering to them, but because I always have a hard time deciding which ones to print. And then to not waste […]
