"Blue Fog", 16" x 20" acrylic painting on canvas
No matter what I’m making, I somehow seem to end up immersed in the primaries again. Red, blue and yellow- my dear, dear friends. Add a little white and some soft black charcoal and I’m a happy gal. Today I finished “Blue Fog”, above, the companion piece I mentioned for “Going Home”, which is coincidentally on the way to its new home in the Pacific Northwest. Someone snapped it up Easter morning (I know the call of Etsy is strong and difficult to resist even on holidays), which was bittersweet. I hardly had any time to tuck it in to my tiny studio and admire it. But I’m thrilled to know it will bring joy to someone else in their space. I’m not a hoarder when it comes to my art, but I do have to pry canvases from my husband’s hands on occasion. Here are a couple of detail shots:
My favorite red of all with that twinge of orange.
It makes me giggle that the sign reads "turn head next" because of all the billboards they slap up out there.
Oh, and did I mention this painting is also for sale? Want it? Get “Blue Fog” here before it’s gone.
