Figure Paintings

Anchoring figures in a landscape: it’s a challenge that works best when I know the subjects well- or when they emerge intuitively (like the Studio Geniuses below).

"Abundance" 2018 - Acrylic & Collage on Board 16 x 20

One of my Studio Geniuses. When I’m having a dry spell, she reminds me that the store of creativity is inexhaustible.

 

"Intention" 2018 - Acrylic & Collage on Board 16 x 20

Another Studio Genius. She reminds me that inspiration must be channeled. Practice and persistence play a role, too.

Our granddaughters Addie and Rosemary are the subjects of this painting. At the time, dressing up was their favorite activity and pink their favorite color. It suggests innocence, imagination, and fun.
