1165. Red Hot Temper

I am working on being less hesitant with my painting and mark making.  It is difficult for me.  In this painting, I let it rip and I'm happy with all the little nuances and the depth.

1164. And That is the Question

 I recall somewhere in my past, I enjoyed cutting letters out and sorting them by letter in multi-compartment containers, and then putting them together to form a message, a la ransom message style.  Have you ever seen the ransom message, "Hand over the chocolate and no one will get hurt."?  Cracks me up every time.

I love this little painting, especially the letters.  There are so many situations in our world that have me asking this question on a daily basis.  I know I'll never get a true answer.  Sadly.

1163. Metropolitan Opera

 The taster course is over, and I am taking the plunge and taking the Find Your Joy 2022 class beginning this weekend.  In the meantime, I am making "lemonade" out of some of the "lemons" which are underpaintings.  The collage papers are hand made by yours truly.

1162. Back Up Plan

 The original painting under this was dark and full of anger.  I was happy to rid myself of it all.  I'm much happier with this one.
