These were both small painting/prints of sheep I did for an art fair in Indiana in 2006.

I was doing a lot of collages at the time.

From the Archive: Ink on Panel Series

I did a series of paintings in 2006 that were done with spray paint, acrylic and a lithographic printmaking process on panels. I made the backgrounds, then hand-burnished images onto the panels from pronto plates. I mixed the ink specific for each panel, and often combined several images on one panel, so each was unique. I enjoyed the textures and atmospheric effects on these panels. It's funny - when I look back at older works sometimes it is like hearing something new in an old song.

Rain

It is finally raining here in Denver, and I'm a feeling a little drowsy, so I'll just refer you to some archived posts featuring art about rain -

Kana Tanaka "Passages in the Rain 2"

and
