Thank you again for sharing your technique in creating this big, bold, gorgeous piece. I love the neutral tones, but the addition of bright red really did it for me. Wonderful!
Showstopper!! Everyone else go home. This is big bold and beautiful, wonderful to see you work on this piece. Just my cup of tea. Love watching you work on such a big piece. Hope the owner puts it on a dark wall what an impact a sure conversation piece. Lovely lovely work. Thanks for sharing with us, and for giving us an closeup of this piece.
Wow Karen, blown away, what a superb piece of artwork, to me its such an emotional piece, what more can l say...l just absolutely love it.....what an inspirational and talented lady you are...x
Absolutely stunning piece! The simplicity of it, the softness, and the bits of bolder colors make me fall in love with it. Thank you for sharing the process with us all.
Thanks for watching, Bonnie. My husband made that for me but I'm sure you can find someone to do that for you. Dick Blick Art Marterials have some large ones.
From one artist to another " She is good!! Abstracts are not as easy as one thinks! She seems to pull the feelings out of the inner zone which is not something most people can do!
You are very right. The finished size is 60x60 but because it was not on stretcher bars and was rolled to ship I had to allow for the extra that would go around the stretcher bars so the board is 72x72.
Beautiful. How do you know where you're going ? Is it a feeling ? Do you just allow whatever you're feeling to just take you where you want to go? Or do you have a general idea of what you want to do before you get started? How do you decide what colors you're going to use? Or is it an organic sort of thing? You seem to have a very good knowledge of color and blending color. And you seem to know exactly when to stop.
Thanks for stopping by, Brandi. I most cases I have a concept and palette in mind but those change quickly. In this case it was a commission and the client had specific things in mind so I, of course, went with that.
Du bist auch eine Malerin, von der man begeistert sein muss. Wunderbar deine Bilder! 👍👍👍
Thank you very much.
I've yet to watch you paint something that I don't like. Class!

How long did you need for such a paint?
I worked on this off and on for about 3 weeks.
Please let me know I would feel privileged please I live in South Africa
What would you like to know?
Oh.. really huge..
It is! Thanks for watching.
😍
Thank you, Bobi
I love how she always skips over showing interesting techniques.
I skip over uninteresting parts and try to stay within a reasonable amount of time.
You
Huge! Or should I say, “Uuuge!”? I like it, but if you keep this up you’ll need a hydraulic lift! Cool, as usual!
It is indeed.
Y
this is art??????
Apparently, to your eye it is not art. My work is not for everyone.
🤐 zip it.
