Day 4. Reflection

Oil painting with vibrant textures of a woman sitting on a ledge looking at a yellow bird resting on her knee

“Reflection”, oil on canvas, framed I recently started using some unlikely objects in my studio– the core of a romaine lettuce creates a stunning floral pattern when dipped in paint and pressed onto a surface. The lettuce has made some of the background patterns in this one. I also used the circle patterns of a […]

Day 3. Revisit

loose, abstracted palette knife oil painting of a hummingbird resting on a branch in a gold frame. Streaks of greens and oranges.

“If you Blink, You’ll Miss it” 6×6 in, oil on panel, framed Looks like I’m staying with the hummingbird again for day 3. I also took some time to edit a poem I wrote during the last 31 in 31. It’s still not quite there, still a little clunky in places but, I suppose so […]

Day 2. Linger

8x8 oil painting in a gold floater frame of a woman in profile with pink flowers growing in her hair and a hummingbird hovering near.

“Hum of the Flowers” 8×8 in, oil on canvas, framed The little hummingbird from yesterday’s painting made it back into today’s. I love the hummingbird for its precious little quickness, its constant darting, and the reminder it always gives me to maybe linger for a bit before running off to the next shining thing.  31 […]

Day 1. Fight or Flight

4x4 in palette knife oil painting of a black bear and a hummingbird on an orange background. Framed in gold floater frame.

“Fight or Flight” 4×4 in, oil on canvas, framed I don’t usually get very sentimental about the new year and maybe that’s because I get sentimental about almost everything else. But fairly recently, the gallery made four years, and I asked myself this question: what has made you the most proud? It’s not a question […]

Day 31. Creativity

These are actually just little pieces of my day 31 painting which I have been working on for several days now. The whole thing is four feet tall by four feet wide– when I stand behind it, just my head and shoulders poke out the top.  I’m not posting the entire piece because I’m taking […]

Day 30. Abundance

“Abundance” 6×6 in oil on canvas, framed How interesting it is that we usually think of abundance only in terms of how big or small our home is, what kind of car we drive, how much we’ve saved for the kids to go to college. When I zoom out, I can see that even if […]
