The Dog Days Of Summer-b

The Dog Days Of Summer


The Dog Days Of Summer, oil on canvas, 9"x12".  For sale on etsy.

Here's a good example of how I can start a painting with a specific idea and how it completely morphs into something else.  This was supposed to have been my bee painting, as I discussed in an earlier post, but then something happened and it turned into a watermelon and dog themed piece.  One never knows where a painting will end up.  I'll try and reconfigure the bees into something else.

The lengths that I will go to


Sometimes for the sake of art you have to roll up your sleeves and pose for your own paintings.  Here are some outtakes for a painting that I'll be working on for next week.  I'm not much of a model and tend to goof off which often leads to falling and hurting myself.  Hopefully it will all be worth it in the end.  It will be a bee and shoe themed piece and thankfully I didn't need to pose with actual bees.  Although, I did get to model my Nathalie Lete skirt that I purchased at Anthropologie last week so that made it all worth while....!

The Princess Phone


The Princess Phone, oil on canvas, 8"x10".  Sold.

I watched 'A Single Man' last night and became obsessed.  Not so much with Colin Firth  like most people would, but rather with the style of the film and more specifically with Charley's (Julianne Moore) house, furnishings, accessories, and her adorable aqua princess phone.  This painting was well underway, but I just knew that princess phone belonged in this painting.  It was the missing piece to the puzzle.

I think Tom Ford should make more movies, even though it made me cry.
