Results From The Workshop

Yesterday's acrylic workshop with Sheila Karrow produced this little number that I should be able to add to my total for the exhibit...26 days away. I have to start thinking about the poster, written stuff like artist's statement and text for a few paintings. I like to be chatty even when I'm not present and I cain't stand the formal approach to art presentation. That's so last millenium ...or Vancouver-ish.

Pimp My Bag

The few of us attending Art Club last night customized our reusable shopping bags in a variety of styles. I decided that I would like mine to look somewhat 'tattoo-ish' so chose a dragon and blossoms. Pen and ink with acrylic paint. The remainder of my collection will eventually feature various tatto inspired images.

Beware Of Moose

Look what I witnessed just as I was leaving Dairy Queen with my chicken strips -
(pardon the fuzzy photo) it's a moose putting the run on a couple out walking with their dog. It wasn't exactly high speed, more like a trot but they had to find refuge at the bar there.
So yeah...I just saw a moose chase 2 people into a bar.

Leaves On Mossy Log

This is the acrylic painting that started as a lesson with the Seniors on Saturday. At the end of class someone commented that this was another painting for my exhibit so after mulling that over I decided to keep working on it at home. So here it is.

Autumn Colours

...................................................................................................................................................................
............................................................oh, man....just came to...and right on time to snap a few photos of the fallen leaves! Would have been nice if the light had been better but I need some reference pics for the Senior's Acrylic class (that I'll be drenching with my nasty flu germs) tomorrow morning.

Revelation?

I just discovered that I can drink and paint! Now - is this a good thing or a very, very bad thing!? Only time will tell.
My trees are a little extra tilted however...

Mossy Arms

In the dark, dark woods. I sketched the branches eons ago while camping at Lakelse Lake.

hmmm...'The Mossy Arms'...doesn't that kind of sound like a drinking establishment?
