Forgotten oldie but goodie


Whoops! I'd forgotten about this one! This one was the last one I did in art school. I promise. :)



Little dude has become really naughty lately...

The painting's great but the kitten is COOL! HA! My cat Harry is a paper towel nut, and now so is Paco - I'll destroy the environment all by myself... one pet at a time....

Jala, I've enjoyed reading through your posts on your recent thoughts (frustrations?) with the painting. They're thoughtful, as well as expressing of a struggle. I feel for you, I of course know that frustration well. Keep going, I think, keep making any mark until you're sure whether that's the mark you want. That's what I try to do, anyway!

Nice painting Jala. The roots of your current work are visible in the fine composition and handling of light and texture. But still, I like the little jam jar and spoon better! Looking at both posts, I wonder if the attack on the toilet paper is what happens to one who doesn't drink enough water?

hey Jala, it is a goodie. What I nice sense of form. What size is this?

Kelley - Just make sure they're recycled paper towels and T.P. Then we don't feel quite so bad. :)

Karen - Thank you. I guess that's all we can do, keep making marks... simple but true.

Hi Donald - Heeheee. Maybe his toilet-paper attack was kind of rabid. I also like the fresh alla prima style better in my own work. I'm more drawn to it somehow. Perhaps partly because it feels bolder.

Susan - 10" x 12". Thank you.

At some point, he'll figure out how to snag the starter piece and RUN RUN RUN!!! It's how great art is made.
