I walked into my studio today with my spine straight and my resolve intact...The Muse walked in behind me, dropped her travel bags and pushed up her sleeves.She said, " Lets get to it." ...and we did.Two hours later...and I am here to tell you it was only about 20 minutes in my internal clock, we have the painting you see here. I have a few details to add when dry enough but I am thrilled with the start of 2010 and my painting efforts. There is no place in my life that TIME is suspended like when I am at the easel. The "Zone" does indeed exist.First time I have put oil paint brush to canvas in '010.I feel like I just let out a LONG held breath. Yes, this is breathing to me. OK...the nuts and bolts: This is my rendition of a beautiful cat that is up for adoption at RIMROCK HUMANE SOCIETY in Montana.She is waiting for that forever home. Her name is "Honey" I will be posting this for sale on the ART HELPING ANIMALS ART BLOG as soon as it is done.If you are interested in it before I list it please know 20% goes right to this rescue.It will be 125.00 with free domestic shipping!please email me: carolchretien@aol.com to reserve it. Once it is gone, it is gone for good.
Back to the studio and back to work.
My exploration of different mediums continues.
