I got a lot of ink work done on "Urban Angel" yesterday. As a matter of fact, it is almost entirely inked in. I just have to add some more graffiti. I am really liking this piece. It is funky, bright in color, and just weird enough. I will post a picture of it when it is done. Other than that, there is not much going on here. I am fighting another cold which has me on the couch more than in the studio and that is really frustrating. The weather is a little nicer now that it has gotten winter out of it's system. We had 5 1/2-6" of snow just 4 days ago! Now it is gone but it has left swamps in its place and more rain expected this evening and tomorrow. I miss the sun! Maybe I should work on a piece that is all yellows, reds, and oranges. That would warm me up!
I am thinking about starting a new series of paintings. At my last yoga training, which was awesome by-the-way, we talked about following your intuition. I like the idea of doing paintings based that flow from my intuition. Free flowing, non-restrictive, paintings. We shall see if the idea pans out. But for now, back out to the studio! Have a sunny day, everyone!

Expanding...
In a move to make more posts on my blog, I have decided that there will be more than just art discussed here. Right now, I am working but there are other things that are drawing my time away from the art so the posts have been slim. If I include ramblings of another nature then there can be more posts.
I did finish a painting last week. I'm calling it "For Sale By Owner". Here is a picture. Sorry that the quality is not great, I still need to have it professionally shot. It is 16"x20" and all colored pencil on wood panel. Once I get some better pictures, I will post this one on my web site.
And a detail...
And here is a tiny preview of what I am currently working on.
This piece is only about 1/3 done but I wanted to give you a taste. I am calling it "Urban Angel". It will be ink and colored pencil on wood panel. You can see the wood showing through now (it is the brown background color) but when I am through, I doubt you will see any wood. It will just give the entire painting a warm tone.
My work is taking a funkier turn. More like my older work. And I like the direction it is going. I feel completely uninhibited by rules or the need for everything to make sense and it is quite liberating. So who knows where it will go or what you will see?
