I’m posting week two, and some extras. The server for my site was under repair for a few days. There may still be some hiccups. Fingers crossed.

I have transitioned from acrylics to watercolor. The acrylic pieces require so much time. And I had been posting really late each day. I still have ideas floating around, so I may be working with collage and acrylics again before the month ends. These are all 8 x 8 inches, except for the landscape. It is 4 x 4 inches.

The sedimentary paints created fun textures.

Seven paintings. And one whoosh of a week.
I’m having fun, getting back to painting. It’s been months. Hello again!

All of these are acrylics with collage, some of it digital collage. Some pen, some palette knife. The first 5 days I worked on 8 x 8 canvas board. The last two abstracts are 4 x 4 on paper.

I included an Arizona map on one of the cactus pads. The words are lyrics to the song “Missing” by Everything But The Girl.

… And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain …
