Sister Dance

Sister Dance - 8x10, Mixed Media on Canvas
Here's my latest painting, Sister Dance.  I'm in love with the little piece of vintage music that I've added to the older girl's bow.  For some reason it feels a like it's a little secret, even though it's right there in plain sight.  Just makes me smile inside a little.

I really made an effort to make this piece very texturey.  Is that a word?  No. Ok, full of texture, this one is.  (Now I sound like Yoda.)

Color A Day #10 - Vintage Pink


Oh, how I love vintage....antiques, old photos, aged ephemera.  There's a pink that pops up often in these old treasures.  It's a dusty, mellow, muted color.  It's homey, and I can almost smell my great-grandmother's floral perfume when I see it.  The color today is...Vintage Pink.

Color A Day #4 - Alchemic Teal

Today's color is mysterious, dark, alchemic.
Mix a little Blue with Green, stir in a little Black magic...and there it is: Alchemic Teal.

Color A Day #3 - Blueberry Yogurt

Today's color is inspired by my breakfast.  And so, here is Blueberry Yogurt.  Not actually blue though...more like a soft purple, with some vanilla added.  Cultured.  Mellow.  Feminine.  Regal.
