Here’s my latest little sketch, though perhaps it is more of the germ of an idea for some future work. This one is not typical of the work I am currently doing, but I love the goofiness!

I will be posting more new work as I get the images prepared for the web, so stay tuned.

I think I will have about 40-50 of these small works on paper for sale, as well as perhaps eight new oil paintings and about a dozen mini paintings this weekend and next at our location for the East Austin Studio Tour: The Vortex, 2307 Manor Road.

Continuing to Work Small on my Organics Series

This is one of my recent acrylic sketches exploring the structure of those organic forms in my head that I am currently fascinated to understand: in these images of interconnected solids among voids in a space of ambiguous depth, how are the parts connected; what is attached to what, and where?  I paint in order to see…

I should mention that I don’t think the color is completely accurate.  Sigh!

See more of these little sketch-paintings in my Organics Gallery.  And stay tuned for more in the not-too-distant future.
