work in progress...

This is my latest painting. It's still in the works, but I'm really liking it and hope that continues. I hope to do some more paintings along these lines. I'm transitioning away from dancers in favor of ideas of body language in general and what it can convey...
I'll post higher quality photos soon but for now this cell phone pic will have to suffice.

newest dancer painting

Here's another one-sitting dancer painting I made on monday. I like it a lot better than the first. it helped knowing it was just going to be done in one sitting meaning I was a little more intentional with my marks.















also...as soon as I starting working on the above painting I had some vague image in mind that it was reminding me of and I couldn't place it at all. Yesterday, it finally hit me....
