'Versailles Launderette' oil on panel, 8x8 inches (SOLD) |
Greetings and Happy Spring!
Spring is here, kind of, and never before has the season been more metaphorically linked to it’s bouncy name. It keeps swinging back and forth between Winter and Summer like some kind of giant elemental slinky. To top it off, outer space is throwing giant meteors and asteroids at us. Saw one over LA about a month ago, Ben thought it looked like a firework over Los Feliz, but I knew better. Doesn’t faze me though, I’ll paint either way. Bring it on wacky weather! It’s still early but it’s shaping up to be another exciting year with sizzling spring group shows, invigorating plein air workshops and recent awards and accolades. Here is a brief recap including detailed info of my upcoming shows and events:

Thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog! Here’s to a brand new Spring in the year of the Snake! Shed that skin baby, shed it! It’s the time to revel in new things like budding flowers, moist dew on grass and fuzzy caterpillars turning into butterflies and all kinds of thinly veiled metaphors.
May you always have a shell in your pocket and sand between your toes!

Wow: beautiful light in these paintings, Jennifer!
if able to share...what color or color mix is in that night sky in the Launderette painting? Seems very striking. I can't tell if it's maybe just the red undertone that's creating a nice vibration, or if that blue color or mixture is unique.
Most night paintings i see these days or so dark and muddy, and often rely on a moon, that just happens to be there(?), for light and resulting color. Wonderful painting....as usual.
thanks
