GATEWAY - 6" x 6" acrylic - private collector by Susan Roden

GATEWAY

6" x 6" acrylic on wood panel

Private Collector

Silence . . . returned.

Many know that I returned nearly 3 weeks ago from an art

residency at the Desert Dairy Farm in Twentynine Palms, CA.

It has been a moving experience, plus the knowledge I gleamed

from the coordinated Kickstarter project was invaluable. Since

my time was consumed with the project, I was silent.

And now is the time for me to write this experience.

Above, GATEWAY, is an acrylic of the entryway to the Farm, so felt

it was fitting for the start of my journey. The viewer is actually

looking outward from the Farm's entrance and this is a scene

during a high-wind storm, which prevailed for 2 1/2 days.

All background scenery was obscured resulting in an eery effect.

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.

FRIDAY BREAK

2 + A HOLE 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square white archival matte, glass + gold leaf frame PRIVATE COLLECTOR It's been a long week getting everything together for the opening of Frayed , so decided I needed a sweet treat to chill out. Nothing like a frosted donut which is always so yummy! When I was young my Mother used to make homemade donuts, which is indescribable. At that time my sister and 3 brothers fought over the "holes", which were a perfect one-bite affair that always melted in our mouths. Those were the days!

SUSAN'S . . . PLAYING AGAIN!
