This painting was a lot of fun! Notice the egg trees in the background... I painted this piece on a block of wood in acrylics. Then I sealed it with a nice gloss varnish.
I got this idea for a series, let me know what you think!! After I painted "Miriam's Hat" and "Bunnie's Hat", I thought I should go through the alphabet with names and each character is wearing their hat, The Hat Series. I also want to do a Cocktail Hour Series with the characters enjoying their fav cocktail, and the names of the cocktails would follow the alphabet also...
Aloha! New visitor here. :) I noticed we share a love for some of the same blogs, so I had to come over and take a peek at your work. Love it! This is hard to explain, but there is such a sense of purity to your work that I find really refreshing.
ReplyDeleteI love your idea for a series - you should do it! What an accomplishment that would be to get through the entire alphabet!
Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and let you know that I am following along...hope you are having a wonderful week!

Hi Suzie - I would love to know where you (and others like you) get such wonderful original ideas! I love the rabbit and egg trees - very unique and - original! A whole set would be quite an undertaking - but I'd say you were ready for the challenge! Thanks for thinking of me for your award - such a nice gesture! Have a great weekend - hope it's lovely in your part of the world - coming down from high temps of 38-41 degrees here - and that's celcius!!!
ReplyDeleteWhoa, that sounds cold...It is turning into Spring!!!! My bulbs are all blooming!I am so happy you like my work and quirky sense of humor! I don't know where the ideas flow from, I just try to see things in fun and different ways. Maybe it is from working in advertising for yrs where I had to think very fast and be creative all the time, even when it wasn't inside of me. Also, I try to imagine a world or setting that is more surreal and even child like!
