Lost Abstraction

Found this work in a bunch of old photos from Savannah (circa 2003) - at the time, I poured resin over the panel and ruined it. As far as an abstraction goes, it wasn't too bad. Oh well.

Mourning Dove


I found this little scared Mourning Dove in the alley behind our building yesterday. There have been some pretty severe rain storms the last few days and it probably fell out of the nest. We kept it in the apartment overnight then brought it to the Denver Wild B.I.R.D. Rehabilitation Center this morning - where it will be well cared for. The bird is healthy -after a week or so of softer foods it should be back in the world waking Denver with soft coos. The center does great work - please consider donating.

Advice from a Painter: Part 3 - Kaye Donachie

Kaye Donachie, "Myself I think shall never know, how far beneath the wave I go", oil on canvas, 61 x 45 cm – 24 x 17 3/4 inches, 2010

Kaye Donachie, "Without You", 2008, Oil on canvas, 27 3/4 x 23 7/8 inches

Kaye Donachie was kind enough to write a few lines of advice to new painters in my painting class, which I will also share with you;
"This is some advice given to me that I have always followed. 'equipment is very important before even starting a painting. Always use a glass palette, always use pure turpentine to dilute paint not the cheap cleaning turps.......it destroys the pigment. And always invest in good brushes.....( a tutor once told me that you would expect a surgeon to use blunt dirty tools, so a range of quality brushes cleaned every night is essential. Finally, I would say painting is really hard. When you first start out it seems easy and the better you get it the harder it seems.'”
Thanks Kaye!
