“Kelly On The Edge Of The Tub”

7/26/2025 - 5/31/2026
18x24

Oil. Oil Stick. China Marker. Paint Marker.
On Canvas.

This canvas was started last summer while visiting some family.
It was a short visit, but super fun.
I brought a few canvases to work on, but they were mostly false starts, just something to keep my brain from eating itself.
Moving stuff in the big room I found them again and it showed itself.
A lot of the movement was there I just had to substitute the colors.
I added a few more spaces to ground it and it seems to work.
Really loving that neutral white.

Good Luck Out There.
Get Some Sun.
Take A Break.
YOU RULE.

“Kelly On The Edge Of The Tub”
(Andover Mountains)

6/18/25 - 5/1/2026
24x48

Oil. Oil Stick.
On Found Framed Masonite.

I found this framed mountain scene on the side of the road when we were visiting my Aunt and Uncle last summer.
I saw it on the way there and it was still there on our way back, fortunately Kelly saw a mirror and wanted to stop anyways.
I painted the black gesture before bed that night I got it home and that was the start of the battle.
I love painting on these old framed landscapes, mostly for the size and the frame, but also for what the already painted image lends to it.
I try not to totally over paint them, so if you are really looking you can see the original details.
I kept the painting as open as I could.
I blocked out most original details I painted after I started to see that broader areas of color were better for the frame.
I finished this one on the morning of open studios, hung it wet, and a bird pooped on it.
Done.
You can still see the mountains if you rotate it counter clockwise.

Go Easy On Yourself.
Have Some Water.
Get Some Sun If You Can.
KEEP FIGHTING.

“Early Morning Bouquet”

2/30/2026
24x36

Oil. Oil Stick. China Marker
On Printmaking Paper.

This one showed up while trying to finish up a commission.
I needed to go backwards in the painting and was scraping excess paint off to clear a path.
This one is all excess paint, some white ChinaMarker, and linseed oil, but mostly just blank page.
Plenty of movement and some nice corners to hide in.
Definitely helped me get that commission finished “in time” with the good brain blood flowing from this one.

Good Luck Out There.
Keep Kicking Ass.
YOU RULE.

“Fawn At Dawn”

5/25/2026
24x36

Oil. Linseed Oil.
On Printmaking Paper.

This one showed up early morning when I was cleaning some brushes.
Using just what was on the paintbrush in the linseed oil.
Had to work quick cause I didn’t want to add any other paint.
A One Shot Deal.
Very Immediate and the paper absorbed the oil QUICK.
It started as a beach scene and then the fawn showed up.
Airy and Open.
I really enjoy it.

Hope You Have A Decent Start To The Week.
Focus Where You Can.
Go Easy On Yourself.
KEEP FIGHTING.
