The Village Gallery of Arts 2014 Art Challenge Show starts Tuesday, May 6th. I totally redid my four 6x6 pieces for the show. I took floral drawings from my sketchbook and reworked them in acyclic paint. I really like using Golden's modern palette.
This year, I also participated in the jewelry challenge. It was fun to play with painted paper, collage, a Copperplate calligraphic word- "discover", resin, fiber, beads and wire. The Gallery gave each person in this challenge the pendant in the middle of my necklace. I took off the hanging loop on the top, changed the orientation to landscape and filled it with collage and resin, set it in a larger bezel. Stop by the Gallery and check out the one-hundred participants' four 6x6 pieces and the jewelry. The show will be up until the end of May.

I like the direction your paintings have take and am anxious to see the show that starts Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteThe necklace is stunning!
ReplyDeletePaula - your flowers are gorgeous, and are so vibrant in the Gallery. And, your necklace is stunning! You transformed it so far away from the original design, and that is a very wise choice. Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship in it. Colors are so rich, too.
