Grainery Show

My husband, Dave's pottery was on display at the Grainery in Rocky Mount for our featured artist show for the month of Feb. 2012. The RAKU pottery along with the abstract paintings made for a really nice show. We are pretty proud of our joint efforts.

Anasazi

"Anasazi", 32x40", is one of my award winning abstracts that I refer to as my best painting so far. It was recently retired / donated to my minister for his new office.

Gentle Touch

"Gentle Touch" won first place in mixed media at the "Best Pick" show that the Bald Knob art group holds each year. This painting measures 20"x24" matted and framed. Sold

Beyond

"Beyond", 20x24" matted and framed is quiet a conversation piece. Viewers are so creative in discribing what this piece is expressing. 

Contrast

"Contrast"  is 32"x40" matted and framed. The effect is a little softer, but the contrast is appealing. 

Strength

 "Strength" is another 32x40" abstract painting on BK Reeves paper. Acrylic and tech inks are used along with watercolors to achieve the bold colors. I am working on getting the color combinations and expanding my palette.

Secret Garden

"Secret Garden" is 32"x40" matted and framed. I really like the "Monet" feel that I got in this pouring.

Awakening

"Awakening" measures 32"x40" matted and framed. Sorry for the off center photo.
