Just Playing~ Acrylic ~ Lori Singer



Still feeling very blocked, so just playing with color. I love lines, dots and swirls, perhaps if I do enough of them I will be motivated to do something great or challenging. I am thinking about art a lot, but having a hard time performing, perhaps I just have too much going on. I know just showing up and working will take me somewhere eventually. Tomorrow will be another day.

Acrylic ~ Lori Singer



This is inspired by a bedroom quilt and sheets I had as a child, we had lots of color in our home...it was the 70's. Feeling a bit creatively stuck, and in need of a new book , muse or teacher. I tend to revert back to what I know and I really want to grow...urrr, frustration. At least this post is sunny and bright, it makes me feel a bit better.

Inspired by jackson - Amy


Felt like painting but did not want to use a brush. I got out a squirt bottle and made a mess. On the second one, I used a straw and blew some of the paint together. There's also some adhered dried paint from the top of some tubes. When I pealed them off, they looked really cool and I kinda felt like they were the cherry on top of the sundae.

Silhouette - Rachel

Acrylic on paper. I have these fabulous photos of a blue jay in silhouette and wanted to use them in some way so I tried my hand at painting with acrylic again. Clearly I had some frustrations here: Blending, not blending, trying to capture the "final" result, etc. At least I like the results of the silhouette itself. I can only begin to imagine the frustrations Amy was experiencing with oils...
