Heart Paintings and New Links
Every now and again I need a colour fix. So while my oil paintings are drying I like to do my acrylic heart paintings. I use mdf board that has been primed, and then I just let loose with the colours, a little glitter, and sometimes a little collage. Once dry I will cover with a clear resin coat.
Talking about colour, I got some lovely postcards from the ultimate colourist Casey Klahn (one in photograph below) Thanks for sending the cards, I want you to know I am enjoying them in my studio. I also saw this fabulous link on his blog for NewArtTv.
My new Link is WebUrbanist, which has oodles of info on urban design, culture, travel, architecture and alternative art.

I think I'm going to have to fulfill a painting fix soon. I'm coming back later to delve into art tv.
Thanks for the link to NewArtTV.
and make some products with those hearts. Super cool!
You are very talented!
Love the hearts -- they are very refreshing and a real departure from your darker pieces (which are so inspiring, but different). I would love to see you document your process, if it doesn't take away from the spontanaeity that is.
God bless.
Love the hearts.
That's my incredibly insightful comment for today.
