Hi there. How are you?
For the past month, my studio time has been very limited. Life has simply gotten in the way! Finally, things are slowing down and are mostly back to normal. It's time to get back to work! I'm looking forward to a productive July.
An new abstract drawing.
This new original drawing is shown here with a virtual frame. Click to purchase!
Virtual Framing is Cool!
I just finished up this new piece last night. With the power of Photoshop, I was able to show it here in a "virtual" frame. Adding that frame gives it a little more polish. Don't you agree?
Inspired by a Walkabout
You may notice that this hole motif is new. It was inspired by something I noticed along my neighborhood walk the other day. Light was breaking through the leaves on a tree to create this pattern on the sidewalk. I'm quite taken with this idea, so expect to see more in this style in the future!
Ballpoint pen, Prismacolor marker, and a white gel pen were used to create this abstract work. Click to purchase!
An Experiment with Color
I also did a little experimentation with Prismacolor marker last week. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you probably read/saw the struggle I had with this piece. I almost ruined it when I added the marker!
I shared this artistic misstep online. (I think it's good to show the good, bad, and the ugly sometimes!) I was overwhelmed by the positive feedback I received upon posting. Some liked it as was, others had suggestions on how rectify the composition. All that virtual love was inspiring, and I decided to give this piece another shot. The next morning, armed with some good suggestions, I went back into the studio. With just a little bit of white gel pen and a touch more black ballpoint, I was able to resolve this composition.
All three of these original drawings are now available in my shop. Click to purchase!
Now Available
All three of these new original pieces are available in my shop. They all measure 8.5" x 11" and would work as a trio or could stand alone. I've decided to offer these drawings unframed for a couple of reasons. Framed pieces are difficult and costly to ship and I also think it's nice to be able to tailor frames to your own taste and decor. This pieces were all intended to fit in a standard 8" x 10" frame, which are available everywhere.
One More Thing......
Would you like to purchase these pieces as prints? Do let me know and I will be happy to oblige. Thank you for your continued patronage friends!
