6:57 PM: i may decide to put several of my gaze series paintings in the august carbondale arts exhibition. on the LEFT is one i’m strongly considering, inspired by a 1st century fayum portrait.
i used mixed media and collage for this one. if you click on it so that it fills your screen, you will notice a portion of a map on the upper right and lefdt of the head. on the lower right is a piece of collaged newspaper.
watercolor 94 stage 1-at 3pm
3:10: this morning i had some issues with dizziness related to a molar implant; a not unknown side effect. i did the epley maneuver with some success, and i’ll probably do it a few more times today & tomorrow. amazing tool to have in your bag of tricks.
so i got a late start and made the drawing & a few first strokes for watercolor 94, inspired by a very recent trail walk.
BELOW: this is not the photo i’m using, but it’s one i love, shot the afternoon of november 25, 2017. gives a flavor of the magical light.
