PLAY DAY OF FUN WITH FRIENDS

JOEL, BOY BIRD + NANCY

Today I hustled my doll parts to my friend, Joel's studio,
 where Artist Nancy Arthur McGehee joined us.

Now let me tell you about my friends. 
Nancy is an incredible glass artist and a prime example
of her art can be viewed at: 

Joel does about everything from painting, sculpting and mixed media,
with samples of his art at: http://www.sharpgallery.net/index.html

Above left, Joel is creating a doll by adjoining a head and body 
to an inverted piece of palm tree. The reconstructed doll will be so 
striking in all black with vivid blue eyes.

On the right, Nancy is hand crafting heads for a mixed media wall 
hanging mounted on a wood panel. Her center imagery will be a 
wired broken heart.

And center is the start of a Boy Bird that I concentrated on.
I did succeed in hot gluing fuschia and black feathers onto
the boy and attaching a thatch of blonde hair bursting out the 
top of his head. I intend to paint the base with sunny skies.

It was a day of fun, fantastic food, friends . . . and 
the sun was shining ever so bright!

Sold! GLOW, by Susan Roden

GLOW 11" x 14" soft pastel SOLD - private collector So nice this pastel went to a wonderful home! Now I'll live in my memories of the Petrified Forest  National Park, where I did a residency and was  the inspiration for this painting. Thank you!

BLAZING RED

GLOW 11"h x 14"w pastel black with gold trim frame sold -   private collector Night fell fast. The lower half of a thick strand of dark clouds turned blazing-red from the sun as it dropped to the horizon. And the night glowed.

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
