The Finished Product pt. 1

Here they are. The paintings as seen (and awkwardly photographed) in The Million Dollar Hallway.

Up

They're up. Take a look. More pictures will be on their way, but I'm so stoked to see everything on the walls. Stay tuned for more visual evidence.

It's All Coming Together

Last night the Neighbor Who Hangs Art at a Museum for a Living came over. He's a very smart man and he helped lay the foundation for hanging all my pieces. I. Am. Stoked.
And grateful. There are about 50 pieces and without his guidance, this would be too daunting.

Above is a taste of the still unfinished hallway.

Last Batch (for now)

Hello friends,

With but a week to go until The Big Bash, I managed to finish five more pieces and slather them in synthetic amber, thus preserving my visions for all eternity. Ahem. Here they are on the patio table awaiting the hot sun for a day of hard curing. Behold:

Overtime

I thought I was done. But a conversation with my neighbor changed that. You see, he sets up art exhibitions for a living. And concurred with The Million Dollar Wife that the downstairs hallway and landing was a superior space . I'd been hung up on the big living room, but I am convinced. Why? I am a flexible thinker.
And his ideas for how the paintings can be displayed are radical and exciting. However, I want to now finish at least one more BIG piece, plus a few more little ones before it all goes up.
And when the need for inspiration arises, inspiration will soon follow - if you ask nicely.
Here's what I started last night. It ain't done yet, but I like where it's going. Thoughts?

Birthday Resin

Here it is. I think the Great Paint Forward is complete. There are a couple more pieces to slather with precious, life giving resin, but otherwise I'm done for now and feeling very content.


I wanted to finish a lot of new pieces before my birthday while pushing myself to explore a larger scale and color and I've done just that.


Now I need to wrap-up the as-yet-unrevealed-projects and think about how I'm going to display all of these.
These are good dilemmas. I age gratefully.

A Bold Step, A Drastic Measure

Yikes. Color. Haven't really tried that before, but I felt like the Viking ship was missing...something. Thoughts?
