This second picture is a little dark,but allows you to see the Texture a little better, really thick This painting was a case of using what you have. I had some molding medium that was starting to thicken up a little. Hard to use with a brush. So I scooped it up in my hands and smeared it on the canvas. Not until the next day did I decide to make a landscape out of it.

This is a painting that I started and I really didn't like where it was going. So I took paper towels and wipe out the paint as best I could. The next day when I looked at the abstract rub marks that I had made, I saw a landscape painting, so that's what I made it.

This is a painting that I reworked. I didn't feel like it had a strong enough center of interest, so I added the large barn and fence

I sent 3 paintings to Williams Sonoma for a catalog photo shoot. They basically have a room that they stage for their catalog. They will have a large pile of art from a lot of different artist and they will randomly pick whatever art strike them at the time. So there isn't any guartantee that they will use mine, but here's hoping. One of them was a lava painting (red ground). That's an inside joke explained on my last post.

I sometimes get questions from people who don't understand abstracts. I have been asked numerous time if the red ground is suppose to be lava. In case you were wondering. No!

I have been playing with this format, large red ground,small sky. This is the fun part of being an artist. Coming up with a new concept,then exploring it.
I am gearing up for shows this year. I am really wondering how many I should do. It is getting to the point where is is more profitable to sell on the Internet. Now they are talking about gas possibly doubling. That's pretty scary.
