Painting From "The Zone" Book - Eleven & Twelve


"Eleven"
24"x30" Mixed media on canvas
"The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been kindness,beauty and truth."
-Albert Einstein

Print available on 13"x19" heavyweight matte paper mounted on 16"x20" foam board directly from me for $29+$8 shipping anywhere in continental US.

'Eleven' was also painted during the time my mother was dying. The lower right has an image that looks a bit like a sarcophagus or wrapped mummy figure in front of a crucifix with a halo of gold. It was fascinating as these images emerged directly from the unconscious. This was the first piece in this series that I painted on canvas and have continued exclusively on canvas since then. I have no patience for framing pieces under glass.


"Twelve"
20"x24" Mixed media on canvas
"The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand. The angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone."
-George Eliot

It's been a busy few days for me. I decided to buy a new car (2004)Hyundai Santa Fe. I've heard they are great in snow and I've got a steep hill on the way home and country roads to travel here. My jeep was beginning to show signs of concern and it would have cost more to fix than it was worth. I thanked it...really I did...and gave it back to the dealer I originally purchased it from. Feels like I'm floating on air in the new car. The jeep was a rough ride. Anyway, that certainly cut into my painting time and I'm not happy about it.

I'd love to hear what you think of these paintings from "The Zone." You can click on my blog link below and leave a comment.

You are so talented. I am an artist myself.
I ussually prefer drawing. But then again I don't have very much experience with painting yet.
I hope to do more of that this year, in the 9th grade advanced art.
