Walter, my "art guy," asked if I could produce some art in black and white. He had a client who was decorating an apartment with those colors, and he thought we might interest the client in some of my paintings. He also asked if I would paint some smaller paintings. Attempting to accomplish both those objectives, I created this triptych, each piece 12 x 12 inches. Pretty much my first effort, but I kind of like how they turned out. I used some prestretched canvases that were already layered with paint, ones that I had used to unload extra paint from my brushes from other projects. These came together quickly, and I have three more ready to paint as we speak. These are hanging on a skinny wall in my family room for the moment, and I couldn't get a good shot of them today because of the lighting. There is no pale blue, as shows in the picture above.
Have a great weekend, everyone.
Your are just so talented! I love these!
ReplyDeleteI love these. But....
ReplyDeletePeople buy art to match their decor?
Who knew?
These are great. I like the way they work together, but I think they would each stand alone very well. Excellent!
ReplyDeleteAunt Mary! I love these!!
ReplyDeleteI do like this color pallete. And every bit as wonderful as your usual colors!
ReplyDeleteI love when a request pushes me to new places. Beautifully done Mary.
ReplyDeleteLeslie: Thanks. I'm glad you like them.
ReplyDeleteJazz: Yeah, I know. Hey, whatever it takes to sell some art. I'm in. . .
Miki: Thank you, that's what I was trying to do, make sure each piece could stand on its own.
Lauren: I'll make you some whenever you're ready.
Seth: Thanks so much. B W & G are a bit astray from the colors I usually use, for sure.
Katherine: Thank you. This came together so easily that it surprised me.
