During the exhibit "Out of the Depths" March 4 - April 24

at Studio 14 in Tipp City, I will also be displaying

 my series of paintings created in what I call my transpoured technique.

The transpoured technique is the process that goes beyond just pouring the selected colors onto the paper. I carefully plan composition and strong design elements and manipulate the color to either be repelled or drawn to enhance color intensity. Some paintings are enhanced by working with transparent colors creating subjects and mood.

I joined this group of 100 International Painters who commit to a daily activity in their art business. For most, that means painting daily. I have admired the frequent postings of the

daily painters, having followed the blogs of several.

It is easy to lose track of time, to get distracted and over commit to the needs of others. These are the killers of productivity and inspiration.

I will begin posting (almost) everyday. It's about the activity. Along with new paintings I will post paintings that are being added to new locations and exhibits.

Wish for me activity with purpose....

Oil Painting on Masonite

11"x 14"

This was one of the first minerals I painted. As an artist, I enjoyed the vibrant colors and the contrast of rough and velvet smooth textures. Painted from a specimen on loan from Matt Black of Ohio. The original painting and prints are available for purchase.
