I submitted these two paintings for a contest and potentially to be exhibited at a big affair at a new Museum opening in Las Vegas. "Cake" (8x10) & "Ribs" (11x14) I love the concepts, but because I used acrylics I did not have as much control as I would had it been oils. Live and learn. They probably wont' be accepted but at least I tried.
On the flip side I will be using acrylics to paint this skull (paint on a plaster cast of a skull )that will be shown in a gallery in boulder city and auctioned off for charity (another contest)...well that is fun... it is part of a big Day of the Dead thing they are doing. Ah, but the happy thing is that when talking to the gallery owner I mentioned I was working on painting Guadalupe and she was so excited to have me submit it for this event. Of course Guadalupe is only in the thought processes and I have until the end of September to finish her. Not a problem and this time...I will be using oils. I'm getting on that this weekend.
