Experimenting with watercolors
Been working on a few new things lately…watercolors, for the first time. All still being developed…

Completed: 7000
Two days ago i completed a painting – the first in a long while. I dreamed this up in Greece, the first time I went to Athens. I love how simple this is – I think it’s just a lot “cuter” than any of my other work. And I like thinking that I can convey Read more…
Binary (10) and Binary (11): Complete
I finished two new paintings tonight! They’re smaller than a lot of my work and are similar to Binary (01)…I want to play some more with proportions and see what pops up. Binary (10): Binary (11): A detail: I like them next to each other:

The third and final in this series is done! I am thrilled with the impact these have when placed side-by-side: Or to put it another way:
505: Complete (for now)
Like 200, this one is done by virtue of the fact that I’m gone and can’t work on it anymore. Had some issues with the gloss/matte mediums that haven’t been problematic before, which I’m sure is due to using lighter paint colors. So I think I will go back and highlight that when I return, Read more…

200: in progress
Last night I did the texture; today I did the color. I think it’s clear by now that these are done with latex house paint. Today I had the yellow paint mixed and they could only do a semi-gloss because of the pigments–so when I add the numbers in a matte finish, I’ll also gloss-ify Read more…

Numbers cut out and affixed…the third one in this series will be in the works before too long, though my travel schedule has a way of getting in the way of that since these paintings take a lot of time. It’s amazing how putting the numbers on gives me such a tremendous “AHHHHHH” feeling, like Read more…
407: Complete
With the addition of the numbers (again, painted just in a matte finish), this is complete! Like 641, it’s latex and acrylic paint over modeling paste on canvas. These paintings really have to be seen in person to get a real feel for them. Details:
