A BITE *

And I'm off!
Finally got a break in my hectic schedule, so going
off in another tangent with art for a completely
different series.
Isn't it refreshing?
Sure you other artists out there can relate. I've made some
changes - basically stopped creating petite daily pastels -
and focusing on larger art, as well as pieces for my two
upcoming shows (which entails my itty-bitty creatures, that
seems to flip everyone out, but hey . . everyone has their vices.)
So back to my new stuff. I'm primarily focusing on figurative
work, with a different handling of the background. For years I
vowed that I do not + would not blend, however the basis of
this background is blended. Well whip me, but I did find it
quite challenging. So I've journeyed to farmers markets,
with the people being my target, rather than the produce.
Okey . . . now where will this lead me?
Stay tuned.
Excellent! If this is an indicator, it will lead to grand things!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful Susan! And... is she eating a DONUT????? Go in the direction your desire takes you - you will not be disappointed!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Mary! Very kind of you.
ReplyDeleteAnd Kelley you are TOO funny - of course she's eating a donut. There is no other better food group than sweet, sugary donuts.
Un très joli pastel... Une grande sérénité dans cette oeuvre... Laissez-vous porter...
ReplyDeletegros bisous
Susan, I LOVE this one! Your unique, creative style is still evident in this painting, but there is a new additional element of deep pensive emotion (that was my own reaction, somebody else might see it differently). Is the palette a lot different from what you've used before? I find all of your work stunning, every time I see it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful work, Susan. It's always a good thing to shake things up, go in a different direction. That's what keeps life exciting!
