a quick stop.....



mixed media on board 19x24 - Site #3

Hello and happy Tuesday to everyone - I won't bore you with which one this was before, but trust me, it's much better - we had a fabulous four days with family here and I am just now back to work in the studio - this piece is #3 (obviously) in a series about 'sites'- sites being places that have been rediscovered by digging into them - that seems to be my MO right now - digging past something pleasing to get to something deeper - hope you are all finding life good!

i don't vote, but THIS piece is a favorite...sooooooooo organic. and how / what are those hairs/cracks/threads in there?

Daryl said...

I hesitate saying I like it because I am sure its going to keep evolving ...

Jeane said...

good morning Chris, thank you - I'm glad I'm back painting also, I need that balance in my life :)

thanks Mary Ann, am definitely happy to be back working - working through these shifts in my art practice much like the seasons changing xxo

hello Neva - thank you so much - one of the things I like about painting wet on wet is the ability to paint, scrape, and cut into the built up layers, thus the little threads :)

too funny Daryl - I actually am very satisfied with this one at this point xxo

Jeane, I especially love the right hand side of this one.Such drama in the contrasts,,,and yes, I adore the little 'threads'.
So, if you gotta change this one,,,,keep your fingers off that side.
(please?)
:-D

Jeane your work always leaves me feeling awed! I would love to know your secret for digging into the depths of your work - they are truly inspiring images that have something of age and the old masters(mistresses) about them - thank you
