Today, December 7, 2011 has been an extremely productive day. I am currently working on my third, yes, third painting. I feel at ease currently as I am done with classes for the semester and able to focus on what I want to focus on. I am still using monochormatic work and using my creativity and a feeling as I paint these paintings. I feel a sense of love and thoughtfulness when I think of someone as I paint my feelings about them.
This first painting is red and is currently in progress and is inspired by a rose painting I did years back. It is more of what I feel in the past and in my present state. The size is 24 by 30 on canvas using acrylic paints. (a bit larger than the others- painting is so much better in real life than this picture- picture does no justice yet as it's in progress)
The middle one is a feeling titled "Mark" as a dear friend of mine is in his first year of teaching, as he is trying- that is a feeling. Hence the triangular figures. I thought of him as I was working on this painting. I think he could associate well with this 16 by 20 canvas using acrylic paints.
The last one is of my wonderful mother- titled "Mom" I thought of her the whole time I painted this painting. Again this is also a 16 by 20 canvas using acrylic paints.
