WaHOO! Back to school!!!! Today was the second day of the kids starting back at school in 4th and 5th grade. Its insane how fast that has flown by…the elementary years. This is our last year having them both at our neighborhood school. I’m going to miss that so much. Still I am so so SO excited to get back to my mundane routine. After the workout regimen was reinstated, and errands were run, I actually had 2 hours to paint! Turns out, 2 hours wasn’t enough and I was almost late for school pick up. Here’s what I did get done…This is a diptych titled “Inner Workings”. When framed, it will be framed as one, with a divider between the 2 pieces. I’ve never done a diptych before, so I’m pretty excited about this. Its not 100% done. I’ll make some finishing touches tomorrow.
This piece was hard to photograph because of the gold paint. Really, you should just see it in person. It is titled “Commercial Break”. This also needs a few finishing touches. Then frames!! I’m creating quite a little stack of paintings that need frames! My husband will be so happy to hear that.
Since I was so bad about updating my blog this summer, here is one more. I did this about a month ago. This one is titled “Poppy field”. There is something about this piece. I’m not sure how to feel about it, because I love it, yet I want to fix it…yet I don’t want to change it one bit. I guess that is what I love about it. Maybe it just reminds me of my kids in that way. So I’ll just frame it and hang it on the wall.
Thanks for checking in…
