BLOSSOMS in the Placer ARTS and EVENTS CENTER

 Placer County Arts is having a May Show, titled,
BLOOM
3 of my paintings were accepted ;)
(always thrilled)
This is the first one;
 
JUMP INTO YOUR LIFE
(my picture taking has gone down hill)
 
 
 
 
 
 up close, the largest flower pot in the painting is fabric with paint added to it
 
 
 
 
 there is writing...positive messages all along the orange lines...
 
 
 
 
 
 I have loved these hanging on our own walls...they are so cheerful...but alas...
I paint so much, our walls are over loaded ;)
 
 
 
 
 This is the Second Piece.
These first 2 are 12"x 36" x 1 1/2" gallery wrapped
The 4 polka dot squares are torn fabric and
the flower centers as well ;)
 
 
 


























 hoping you can read this quote from Mark Twain?
 
 
 
 












 This 3rd piece is 10" x 28" x 1 1/2" gallery wrapped,
titled; Plant "P" words ;)
TISSUE PAPER (crinkly) is the foundation over the canvas before I applied the layers of paint and more tissue paper.
There is a lot of texture that just doesn't show up in the photos.
 
 
 
 
 like "purpose", "perky" and...
 
 
 
 
 that IMPORTANT one;
Play, play, play...
 
 
 
 
the sides are pretty too...
one day i'll take better photos
 
 
 
 
 
 
Meet and Mingle Night is May 1st for art collectors,
and then our work will remain in the ARTS BUILDING,
the month of May.
If they sell, we are allowed to replace with another work,
so I am very busy PLANTING seeds of ideas and trying
to BLOOM some more.
 
TIS' THE SEASON FOR FLOWERS AND FRIENDS
THANK YOU FOR VISITING ;)
