Day 4

Made good progress today adding the heron and trout.

I spent way less time moving the lift around but still came home with sea legs! I suppose I don’t notice the constant movement of the lift because I’m focused on painting as quickly an efficiently as possible. When I get home I still feel like I’m bouncing up and down slightly…it gives me motion sickness for a little while. This morning I woke up and while still in bed I felt like I was rocking in a cradle!

Day 2

My drive into the site is fun!
Another beautiful day to be painting outside.

First full day with the lift so I went high! I’m getting the hang of this boom lift and loving it.

Sketched in the rest of the mural and started filling in the background stripes. That underside was a lot of rolling over my head…glad that is done. I had blue freckles when I was finished.

It’s starting to look like something!

Day 1

What a beautiful day to begin the mural! Only bump in the road today was a delayed lift delivery. It arrived around 3pm so most of the day I only had my 6’ ladder. I did everything I could reach with the ladder. Hence…a headless fish and half a chipmunk.

The ground slopes sharply on the sides of the piers so I could only place the ladder against the front and then stretch…good thing I did yoga in the morning!

Took some time to learn how to operate the lift and then I finished up the second stripe of color(there will be 11).

Lots of excited pedestrians, bikers and dog walkers expressing their gratitude!

My solo exhibition “Phases” continues until September 7th @theglassturtlestudio

I’m so grateful for all the but little red dots…
a million thanks to all the buyers!

This exhibit showcases some of the different phases into which my art has progressed.

Pattern, color and texture, animals and whimsy are recurring themes but the style in which they painted and applied changes over time and with a desire to do something a little differently.

This is the first time these phases of painting have been exhibited together.

I invite you to take a peek.

🐦‍⬛Bird House

I saw this fabulous blue door when I was dropping my son at camp on E. Market Street in York. This image popped in my head.

Stories develop in my head as I paint. When I asked Heath what story he saw it was completely different from mine.

What story do you see?

I am so enjoying using a bit of collage in my latest paintings. There is a strong flow of ideas in this style and subject matter. The next one is already in the works…it’s a big one!
