Inside on Earth Day? Gotta Make My Studio Hours

 I bounced back and forth between two pieces.
  Avalon and Blessed Is the Bunny.
Avalon 36 x 36 Acrylic on Canvas In Progress
These little women are developing into quite a work of art.  Oh my...
Notice how saturated the color is becoming.  Mary likey!  I've decided to morph the balloon into another object. It is either going to be a Wonder Woman Shield or a bull's eye target.  I am leaning towards the Wonder Woman Shield.  I am pretty sure I see "Linda Carter's" invisible plane parked on the runway behind them.  Of course you are welcomed to weigh in on this debate.  Let's move on shall we?

Blessed Is the Bunny (24 x 18?) Acrylic on Canvas
Blessed is the Bunny who lulled my sweet girl to sleep for the past 11 years.  Right now Bunny is feeling jealous and sad.  Why you ask?  Her baby girl is growing up way to fast!  Bunny is feeling less and less needed.  I reminded Bunny that her girl is one of the most loving, generous, and loyal girl's any Bunny could ever have.  Bunny should know by NOW that her girl keeps her very close to her heart and that no i-Pod Touch or any other gadget could ever take her place.

Saturday, April 17 Artist's Log

This morning I had to jury NOVAC's  (Northern Virginia Astronomy Club) First-Annual Art Contest.  I must say it is very cool being on the other side of the jurying process!  Then it was back to painting as usual.
Here is how Avalon looked by 2:00.  I added quite a few layers and needed the paint to dry before I could add any more. So I switched gears and moved onto a new work titled Bunny. Do you remember my most famous model? (If not... feel free to check out the blog archives) Anyway, after I sketched in the composition I revisited Avalon.

Avalon @ 5:00
It is time to clean the brushes and head out for the day.
