“Love Poem” 20×16, oil on unstretched canvas
I haven’t been quite in the zone these last few days so I decided to mix it up, similar to what I did last year around this time, and work on a different surface. I did today’s painting on unstretched canvas which is essentially thick paper. For whatever reason, it loosens me up and makes the painting come out more like a sketch, which I truly love. Speaking of, today’s companion poem is a love poem, one I’m hoping makes my husband blush a little. Like the painting, it came pretty quickly and got right to the point. Which is exactly what I needed because that’s not been the case lately.
There’s no link to today’s painting because we are snowed in (WHAT!?); since it’s on loose paper, it will need to be framed, and I’m not sure yet exactly how. As soon as I can, I’m going to head over to our local frame shop and discuss options. I’ll let you know what we come up with and make it available then. If you know anything about framing and have any suggestions for works on paper, I am definitely all ears! And now, for that love poem I was talking about:
