remember yesterday’s art? well here it is again with a lot more stuff on it.
July ATCs, finished.
ALT: mixed media. a grid of 9 rectangles. on a ground of soft curves of color there are masses of calligraphic black ink imaginary writing, and on top of that, the alphabet is painted in bold acrylic colors, outlined in black ink.
join
ALT: acrylic painting. two stylized purple figures follow each other as if dancing, across an abstracted landscape of blue and green hills, under a red sky with two suns.
no kings.
ALT: two signs for tomorrow’s rally: top one says “BREAD NOT BOMBS”, under the symbol for peace. bottom one says “NO KING. IMPEACH, ALREADY.” in letters over a caricature of our USian autocrat, seated and baring his teeth, with a piggy nose, and trademard red hat and overlong tie. he’s got a crown on top of the hat, but it’s X’d out.
fire ice
ALT: water-soluble crayon, acrylic paint, ink. it says “FIRE” in red and “ICE” in blue, and there’s an ink sketch of someone superimposed on the words, with their fist upraised.
faded memory
ALT: crayon and acrylic paint. blue lines on brown background, a plant with leaves and a flower, a butterfly above. some lines of wind swirling through. a snail creeps below. at the moment, where i live, it’s all covered in snow and waiting out the cold and dark.
another odd bird(?)
ALT: crayon and acrylic drawing. A creature with abundant purple and white plumage, six legs, and a face that is really more mammalian than bird-like. Set on a blue plaid background.
houseplant nightlife
ALT: acrylic painting. A big-leafed plant in a whimsical blue and purple pot, against a black background with a big round orange light – moon? lamp?
sitting standing
ALT: crayon and acrylic. Two figures; the one in the foreground seated, maybe a little uncomfortably; the one behind and to the left, standing but armless and with dog or bird legs. Between them sits the ghost of a cat.
resurrection
Hey! I had my right hip replaced, so time out from making art. But now I’m limping around again, and could get out to my studio! Hoorah! I spent most of my studio time working on a careful and fussy painting, so for the daily I just blew it out and used up the colors on my palette. No apologies!
ALT: a green being something like a praying mantis but minus one set of legs, and a head a bit more like a frog, eyes and arms uplifted before an aggressive red and purple sky.
last call
ALT: crayon and acrylic. Some kind of bird, with storky orange legs and bill, blue and purple plumage, tail a bit like a rooster. Abstract green and blue background, to use up the acrylic paint currently on my palette. I’m going for a hip replacement on the 27th, and probably won’t be able to get to my art space for a week or two. So cheers till then.
