Beautiful wee painting Jala, the colours are lovely, looks a little different to your usual more orderly colour layering but very effect. Do you feel your artwork is changing? I hope you get the chance to frame up this beauty.
Dar, Caroline, Helen - Thanks so much. If my artwork is changing? I don't know. But I have been trying to more and more "allow" things to happen instead of trying to "make" them happen, if you know what I mean. Also trying to stop at a point where the painting has energy and says something--where in the past, I might have kept going and tried to make it neater or more generally appealing.
I'm a painter (and writer and Spanish instructor) living in beautiful Boulder, Colorado. I studied classical art in an ARC (Art Renewal Center) school, Colorado Academy of Art, full-time for two years, in order to benefit from the rigorous atelier-style training. I am currently dedicated to exploring abstract and semi-abstract art, working in oil and also in soft pastel. I firmly believe that all human beings are creative, whether or not they have yet found an outlet for the innate creative urge, and that the creative arts are the highest form of human expression.

Really interesting layers and texture. I'm groovin' on the verdigris and copper/rust.
Those kitties are adorable.
