Another Knife Painting

I did this one a couple days ago, 5x5. I meant to have the orange near the bottom be the focus, but it certainly isn't. Perhaps I will give it another go sometime soon.

Hiatus



I've been very busy, and have found that I can't do everything I want to. I teach several times per week, need to work on my figurative pieces in the studio as much as possible, have on average two appointments per week for my son, and of course need time with my husband and time as a family. Something had to give, and it was the small paintings! However, back in December I took a class with Richard Bowman and gave painting with a knife a try. The last couple nights I decided to get the knives out and try some more on some 5x5 canvases. What fun! I'd love to make this a habit, but unfortunately this sort of thing is last in line when it comes to priorities.

My favorite so far is the cloud.
