NEW PAINTING Daydream 38

"Daydream 38," 24" x 30" x 1-1/2", mixed media (acrylics and graphite) on cradeled panel, $1299 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. I accept paypal, venmo and payment plans; inquiries may come directly to  me . Thanks so very much. It was a busy weekend, full of moments that will make me feel blessed in the coming months, when the colder weather keeps me closer to home and mostly bundled up inside (it's a standing joke with the neighbors that I go into hibernation between Halloween and Easter). Meanwhile, here is the newest Daydream painting. I see one slight change to make with a couple of glazes once the surface is fully cured, but otherwise, she's ready to find a new home. Is it yours? Thanks so very much for following along on my art journey, Warmly, Kim

NEW PAINTING Daydream 23

"Daydream 23," 11" x 14" x 1/2", acrylics and graphite on cradeled wood panel, $499 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. I accept paypal, venmo, personal checks and payment plans.  Inquiries may always come   to me . What do you see in this painting? there are so many delights hiding-in-wait..... Thanks so very much for following along on my art journey, Warmly, Kim

NEW PAINTING Daydream #7

"Daydream #7," acrylics with water soluble graphite on gallery wrapped canvas, 15" x 30" x 3/4", $699 to the first one asking nicely. Painting continues around the sides and will be varnished upon receipt. Detail image below. I accept paypal, venmo, personal checks and payment plans. Inquiries may always come   to me   - thank you! There is a delicacy to this painting that I particularly like. It's fragile, just like that dissolving dream upon wakening.  But these tendrils reach and tangle and persevere with a lovely gentleness, and hint deliciously at what was dancing through our mind just a moment earlier...... And the surface just begs to be touched..... see the detail below. Thanks, as always, for following along with my art journey, Warmly, Kim

IN PROCESS Daydream #2 (in the clover)

IN PROCESS  "Daydream #2 (in the clover)," acrylics and watermedia on a 30" x 40" x 1-1/2" gallery wrapped canvas, image painted around the sides. Dang, but this concept has dug itself deep into my head. #2 will be $1999 when finished. I accept paypal, venmo, personal checks and payment plans. Inquiries may always come   to me   - thank you! PLEASE NOTE: during the past four months, this painting was significantly revised and retitled Daydream 36. The purchase information remains the same. You can see the newest version here. The past few weeks I've seen my muse, but mostly from a distance. I've been trying to entice her to stay, but she doesn't cave for the normal sort of thing like copious amounts of chocolate. However, I think that she's completely sold her soul for these last two Daydream paintings. And hence a new series is born. And I get all the chocolate. Also, this one was very much influenced by my newest acquisition, a...

Learning by Doing

Pictured above are a few of the paintings I've completed as coursework this week in Lynn Whipple 's Big Bold Blooms Wild Painting  online workshop. For reference, the larger piece on the ground is 24" x 30". I'm working big, and bold, and a little wild! I learn so much when I take classes from other artists. Besides the obvious content, I get to see how others' teach and how they structure their lessons. And then I get to continue to learn by practicing the lessons on my own, inserting my own ideas and agenda, and determining which processes are keepers. I really need to reel myself in, though, this time around. I am so inspired by Lynn and the exercises (working with neutrals and layered drawings), my brain is going on fast forward, piecing together all sort of possibilities. I couldn't even sleep last night (yes, I know I am OCD). In between all of the above, I did some complete some serious work on a commission. But I also need to...
