I was feeling a bit anxious today, so I downloaded the most recent episode of This American Life, popped in my headphones, and took myself on a walk. I didn’t have a destination in mind, but it wasn’t really a surprise to me when I ended up at my favorite art supply store 1.5 miles from my house. And if a new tube of paint can’t cheer me up, I don’t know what will.
I walked out with two new blues, and by the time I got home I had a painting in my brain just bursting to come out.
What do you think?
I know it’s a departure from my typical style, but lately I’ve been inviting myself to explore, and experiment, and fail. While the experiments don’t always work out, I think I like this one.
My boyfriend, after coming home from a 14 hour long shift in the surgery department, suggested I title it “Rooster on Mars.” I’ll think on that…

I LOVE it! More experiments, please! It delights and astonishes me how many different styles you have in that brain of yours. I love the texture, and the colors, too. Awesome!
Thanks friend! The powers that be say that artists should pick one style and stick to it, or else you’ll never make any sales. I have such a hard time with that, though. I feel like I’m too young to settle down
That is absolutely gorgeous! I love the way you used the gold in there!!!!
