2013 Christmas Card

Happy Holidays.  This year's Christmas card features a painting from my private collection.  It is a watercolor 21 X 27 inches of a Great Gray Owl.  I started painting with watercolors, then experimented with various mediums including acrylics, pastels, and oil.  I am now painting abstracts with acrylics.  My latest piece which will be posted at a later date is a commissioned triptych 6 feet in length.

Using leftover acrylic paint for collage painting

For part of the painting I peeled off leftover acrylic paint on my palette and stuck them on my painting.  Looks kind of spooky.  12X12 canvas.

Study in blue

Not sure about this one.  Acrylic on canvas, 12X12. 

Another Abstract

I'm taking a class at the Art Students League of Denver from Tracey Russell, www.traceyrussell.com "Exploring the Language of Abstraction".  This is one of my acrylic collage paintings on canvas 24 X 20.
