Power of the Word

A good reminder that we can choose to live or mope around...in essence...die... or we can pull ourselves up by our boot straps, as they say....whoever "they" are. A loss of anything whether it is a love, job or anything sucks, but we can use that creative energy and turn it into something positive and productive. Hey, what a concept!
I did the piece above using recycled and hand made paper (notice the texture) and recycled paint. 11"x14" -SOLD

Midnight Train

Midnight Train 12"x12"x2" available at Kathleen's Gallery, Tryon http://www.kathleensgallery.com/

Inspiration- 30" x 30" x 1.5" 495.00
This is a piece inspired by another artist Kat Fullilove from New Orleans.

Matrix and Boink

Matrix- $ 650.00 2 ft x 4 ft x 1" commissioned piece and is available because it was too bright for the client.
12"x 36"x 3/4" 195.00 This is actually an enlarged section of a commissioned piece I did last summer (shown above) and can be hung horizontally or vertically.

Celebration and Cowboy Sunset

Celebration (above) $195.00 24"x 24"x 2"
Cowboy Sunset $395.00 2'x4'x 3/4"


Here are two paintings and that are very different. Celebration started out as something else...you can see the blue in the background. I was having a hard day and feeling somewhat frustrated. My technique of using the trowel to scrape away my lost love gave me a reason to celebrate the freedom in knowing that time heals.

Cowboy sunset is actually a beach scene on a somber, gloomy day. The mist and rain gave it an overall casting of green and gray. I beefed it up with some orange and blue and it became what appeared to me a cowboy range....ride em cowboy!
