Ode To a Lightbulb

Mixed media Acrylic and Collage on wood panel

8"x 8" each (3 small works)

$600  (whole set)

 In this series I am playing with different scales of pattern, scribbles, loose lines, collage and paint transfers contrasting with large scale solid areas.
The energy in these works comes from the use of a variety of lines and hidden text.
These paintings are a combination of shapes,lines and textures built up in layers. My focus was on lost and found edges and keeping a lightness and freshness in the work.
All 3 paintings are intuitive and came together almost by itself. The loose brush work contrasts beautifully with the defined pattern.

Here is her note/blurb:
Each Tuesday I will post a new picture that we will draw inspiration for our artwork. Posting of creations will begin the following day, which will be a Wednesday.

You may be inspired to use the entire photograph or you may find you are drawn to a single aspect of the scene, a color or color combination, the composition, or even the feeling the photograph evokes.

Simply allow the scene to speak to your imagination and your heart and create something to share here at "Inspiration All Around Us".

I was inspired to post something when i saw this flower. I wanted to paint it in an unusual way to introduce variety in my work.
