Polka Dot Play


Click Here For More Info:  8x8 inches, acrylic on 1/8" Ampersand Gessobord

My favorite artist was playing with some polka dot paintings so I was eager to try.  Couldn't this be a still life in Minnie Mouse's house?  All those bright colors and dots!  The 50's were a great time for polka dots, they just say have fun.

This painting is varnished and ready to go!

Earthscape

 

Acrylic on wrapped canvas, 18x24 inches

This piece was completed awhile ago, it just needed to sit until I decided it was finished.  A few tweaks were added early today before giving the painting my approval.  Another experimental piece using a print making roller, palette knives then brushes making their entry at the end.  I love how the abstracted forms were pulled together by some detail.  The only reference used was the little farm building at the top.  

The painting will be for sale in my show coming up Sept. 13th at the Rumriver 21 Step Gallery,  Anoka MN.  More on that later!
