I know its been a while since I’ve updated the progress on the painting I’m currently working on so here it is:

I have been accused by some as “nancy-ing” it when it comes to this painting but that’s ok, you can’t rush greatness! There were some spots that took at while but I’m cooking now and it’ill be wrapped up shortly.

You learn in school that you shouldn’t really work just one painting at a time. In the past that didn’t work out for me.  I’d have longish breaks due to work or other circumstances and by the time I would start backup any areas that needed to dry would be ready to go.  With fewer distractions now, watching paint dry between layers isn’t very productive.  Having 2 or even 3 paintings going at the same time will keep me on my toes.  Here is the start of something new:

Be sure to check out the opening reception for 8 Women Vision on Canvas Exhibit at the Art and Framing Gallery on Saturday May 7th. It will be from 4:00-7:00 PM. The exhibit will feature Clarissa Adair, Yvonne Postelle, Beth Abbot, Sandy Young, Trish Lopez, Carol Ann Napier, Lois Rayome and Patty Rust. (Yeah Mom!)

Starting something new, I’ll leave this hint: its an iconic building here in El Paso. The surrounding street signs should tell you where its at.
