bouquet #1

ø 5"

A little collage from this summer. As with traditional quilts, it's fun to remember where each torn piece of paper comes from. The gold strip on the vase betrays chocolate consumption.

Dancing Tree

thank you Thor for your help and suggestions with my opening an Etsy site. plunged in yesterday and it is now running with 7 landscapes, including this tree. will be adding one or 2 images every so often. i'll have to figure how to have a widget on this page about it. for now, here is the link: http://www.etsy.com/shop/sylvieKstudio

In these days of doom and gloom, nothing like 3 hours of total immersion in drawing from the model. not ONE thought about money, about the future, about the economy. Just the pure joy of the pen gliding on the page, of the brush adding a bit here, taking off a bit there. The page was blank and suddenly there is a figure on it. Magic!

can you spot the torn pieces of a bill? no, i didn't tear a real $ 100 bill. even a $ 1 bill, i wouldn't tear! still saving pennies actually... there are also pieces from an old postcard of a Da Vinci drawing.

this piece will also be in in the show at Martinez Gallery.
