These "Wander II" art piece is quite different from the first original "Wander" which you can see if you didn't see that one yet.
The "Wander II" is a mixed media piece as well, but does have a rather rough, dark look to it, unlike the first. In Wander II, I used chalks which are great blending tools and lots of circle mark marking.
You see the words, Live Everyday, and My Favorite Part...words that are so important to our creative journey or any part of a journey. Today, we try to live the much you can each day, and remember your favorite parts of your day for gratitude.
I actually like this piece because of it's bold colors and rising circles with mark marking. There is a rough texture to this painting, which is one of My Favorite Parts...you can feel the texture and it feels like part of the wandering process...rough, textured!
Let me know what you enjoy about these pieces... more will be posted.
You can see and get this painting here, WANDER II
Thank you!

Wander.
If you saw my last post, I wrote about a recent creative exercise and how much I enjoyed it. So, I decided many months later, you might want to see these little works of art on paper.
They are raw, not clean edges, but you will see splatter of paint on the edges, the margins are uneven. Again, raw works of creative ideas of words, images, symbols and graphics.
I also decided to not only to share these with you and their processes, but perhaps there might be one you are drawn to and would like to have.
I have listed these little works of art on eBay (my husband and I have an eBay store: Mike & Ally's Haul Ya'll eBay Store. I have them listed for the same price, but you can make me an offer if you like.
And if you love Vintage Items like we do, you find a few of those.
Follow my blog for each update for these new artworks on paper like this art piece. Click on the word Wander to see this painting. Hope you enjoy these little works of art!

Beachcombers, Sea Glass Collectors: Finding Simple Treasures
Hello Everyone!
Well, if you've been wondering where I've been, I'm still here. Took the summer off as I usually do and now I'm fired up to paint again. Taking the summers off really work for me. I was blessed with a wonderful beach vacation in an amazing beach house this past summer. And still reflecting back on that experience.
First, allow me to share with you a little about my purposes in painting. First of all, it's about my love for color and it's energy, that is my passion. Secondly, I search for those profound moments in time that we have all experienced. For me, one of those moments would be my walks on a beach. You know, it's when time seems to stand still and show you something special that speaks to your heart. Like finding sea glass glistening on the beach being bathed in the sunshine and water. A treasure has been uncovered right at your feet. You know at that point, you happened to be at the right place at the right time to look down upon such simple beauty.
It is true, a landscape artist can paint that scene to help you remember a special location and a realism artist can paint the objects of your adoration. Yet, an abstract artist attempts to paint that moment of your profound connection. We artists, do it via color and textures; to give you the energy of that time. My friends and art collectors, that is my goal in painting, to paint those moments in an abstract way for you to enjoy.
But back to abstract painting, I started back working on a few smaller size canvases, they seem to get me into the process quicker and become more experimental. I love sea glass, the colors and texture. Don't you? This painting was painted with unusual ease and you can see the fluid brushstrokes that add a nice quality to the painting. You might say, an impressionist style to it. What do you think?
Here it is. My special moment walking on the beach. I found sea glass and smiled.

Afternoon Sun on the Marsh
Hello All!
Hopefully you read my previous post and you saw the new color palette that I've created for my new water series. Here's another abstract landscape that was inspired inspired by my times at the coast while enjoying the simplicity of the marsh. This painting was painted by using my palette knife to create thick layers of paint. There is a slight subtle glow to this painting from gold paint.
Hope you enjoy the simplicity of this painting.
