Hearts

After reading about how inspired Mattise was by African art, I decided to look through some. I saw their art seems very bright, with lots of detail, so I was inspired and painted Hearts

.

Fountain

Collage made with cut construction paper and dabs of black acrylic paint

Sun Flower

Shoddy scanner. First water color in a while

Junk

 This is one of my few multimedia pieces, done with cut construction paper, as well as with acrylic paint on my usual 9X12 canvas board. What I don't understand is where the bleep did all that grain on the background come from? I'm calling it Junk, for now. Alternate name suggestions would be appreiciated

Pareidolic Laughing Face

Color Flow

I'm undecided about a name. It could be a park or a bird or fish. Name suggestions are appreciated.

 

This style is new because I printed on the painting with plastic sheets with patterns on them.

Done on 9X12 inch canvas panel with acrylic paints

Gray Lines & Colored Boxes

This was done on a 20X24 inch canvas

Anemone & Clown Fish

This was inspired by my last painting. It's a bit blurry because it's on a 20X24 inch canvas board, which doesn't fit on my scanner, so I had to hold my camera

Aquatic Scene

I'd been wanting to make a more realistic piece for some time. I thought a jelly fish would be interesting, then I added a squid, an eel, and an anemone with a clown fish. I'm pleased with the jelly fish and the anemone and clown fish really came out well, but I think I could have done better with the eel and squid

Forked Spoon

Odd thing about the upper cross hatching. They were supposed to be shades of purple, but when I mixed red with two different tones of blue, I got the two colors there.

Broken Heart

This is another experiment with space between the colors, like Bullet. Like it?

Bullet

Now what orange and blue team am I giving a bullet to?

Diamonds & Wheels

More acrylic paint & cut construction paper

Happy Hanukah

Love

This is another done with construction paper and acrylic paint

Fireworks

Orange Rain

This is the first multimedia piece I've done in a while, done with constuction paper and strokes of orange acrylic paint, on 9X12 canvas board.

Richmond Behavorial Associates

Goldfish Photo

Panda

Once I'd made the yellow chain on the red background, I knew it called for a photo in the corner, but who or what? After spending months putting off the decision, I thought contrasting the bright red and yellow with a dark photo, so I thought of a dark photo of an Islamic woman, then I thought, "Do I really want to get on that anti Islamic band wagon? so I put in the panda, thinking the green flora and gray ground might contrast well with the red background I painted. What do you think?
