Did you miss me yesterday? I was confined to my basement, because yesterday called for some art time. Sometimes I just love spending days in a quiet space, alone with my thoughts and tools. There is really nothing like creating something from a blank canvas, and then admiring your creation when it's finally done. No one knows the technique you used, the hiccups you may have encountered, the choices you made during execution, or the feeling behind a piece of artwork but you... and I like that bit of mystery. There is something so personal and soothing at the end of painting.
I'm on a kick of creating these vintage style signs... and what better way of celebrating summer than with an homage to ice cream!
This was once again painted on a wood canvas with my brand spankin new paints. I am happy with this one... I actually think the photo does it no justice because it is much crisper and more vibrant in real life... lighting in photos does strange things sometimes.
Now here's a question for you all... If I were to sell some prints of my art, such as this one, priced from about $20-$60 (depending on the size) would you purchase them? Honest opinions are encouraged! Leave me a comment and let me know :)
I am off to sun myself in the backyard and enjoy this beautiful Saturday!
