2011 Art Project #34 Acrylic bursts

Switching it up to Acrylics.  The photographs do NOT do these paintings justice.  I will need to do this with better lighting, and in focus.  But, I just want these up and to finish this 52 project.  So, forgive me this blog post.

The white on white was really tough to photograph.  But imagine it in your mind.  Very minimal.

2011 Art Project #5 Cosmo's Tuft

This was my second abstract painting with brown and white, then I added the black and red which was exactly what was needed. This inspired me to go back and complete the painting which ended up being "Into the Woods/Out of the Woods". My dear friend, Janine, inspired the title, which was inspired by Cosmo, the Wonder Dog, who as a red tri-colored Australian Shepherd, has similar colors.

Again, the detail of this work came out better than the whole. So, that's all I'm sharing.

I am including a shot that shows the details too. I actually like that part better than the whole...on the computer screen. I am realizing that it's hard to capture the art just right with a camera.

Originally, this was a simple abstract of brown and white, but looking unfinished, I added the black and red framing. Then the people appeared.

This is another 5x7 acrylic painting. A friend said it looks like a "happy Jackson Pollock". If I hadn't already titled it, that would have been the title!
