Some recent news:
So I'm now relatively recovered from my knee problems of last year. For awhile there didn't think I would walk again. And so now I'm back doing art although I have some restrictions I'm under and I can see that I won't be able to keep on doing large size encaustics. But........
I had a chance to take some online and live classes with Jane Davies, a wonderful mixed media artist in early March in Portland and they were great kick-starters.
I also took a 2 day class with Jesse Reno - renowned Portland artist who does pretty fabulous contemporary primitive work. He has a studio and gallery called True Measure Gallery on E. Burnside in Portland.
Below are just a couple of the paintings I've been doing. These are a grid of 4 paintings - each is about 8 1/2 X 10 on paper -based on the second piece which was my initial inspiration- 18 X 22 paper. Kind of Picasso-like. More to come so keep watch.
