Auspicious Landscape

Many possibilities exist at any given moment. 
 Working with wax is giving up control and going with the flow.  I love the feeling!

This is an ink figure on an instructional drawing page.  I was low on paper so I became creative.
 I love to recycle what I have!

Lilacs And Tangerines

   I had a lot of fun using a variety of palette knives to create this oil painting.  I worked from dark to light on a prepared panel.  My favorite part is the lilac petals!

Andalusite

Andalusite is an ancient mineral  that vibrates through this painting.  I was led to it while contemplating a name for this piece of work.  I often have such experiences.
