With the level of emotional sensitivity that I feel, I often question what is real and what is just my imagination.<br />

Because I have been told I overthink things, I wanted to capture this imagined machinery that is in my brain--what makes me overthink. The cogs within feel warped and oddly shaped.

A friend commented that this piece reminds them of stained glass. Which coincides with the feelings I had when painting this piece. The spirituality and healing that comes from painting for me is almost a religious experience, and I wanted to impart that feeling into this piece.<br />
The subject matter also reminds me of the late June summer nights growing up, when my front yard would be abloom with the scent of Peonies, illuminated by countless fireflies.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14967084352150788459noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575754569923581993.post-7863033339370324842013-03-09T17:01:00.001-08:002013-03-09T17:01:26.915-08:00"Inconsequence"Since the advent of 2013, I've been battling a health issue.

<br />
Throughout the month of January, I will have my art showing at the Southport Community Room. Feel free to stop by during their business hours or contact them to find out more about their hours at http://indianapolis.metromix.com/other/community_venue/southport-community-center-south-indy/1548699/content<br />
<br />
I'm also looking forward to an art show at Hoaglin's off Mass Ave. through the month of February!<br />

Of course the theme was anything Fall or Halloween themed.<br />

My father recently went in for emergency open heart surgery (triple bypass). His health has always been at 100%, so it was quite shocking and stressful to see him down and out in a hospital bed. During the long nights when he was in the hospital, I wanted to create something that meant something to me personally and how I felt at this moment. But I also knew that I wanted to enter my next work into the Fall/Halloween themed Perfect Day showing...<br />

Immediately Edgar Allen Poe's dark story "The Tell-Tale Heart" came to mind for my inspiration. First I painted the floorboards around the opening containing the living heart. I made the heart glow with gold and copper acrylic paint and surrounded it with drops of "blood"/ink--giving away where it was hidden among the floorboards.<br />
My opinion, it might not be my most technical work, but it certainly means a lot to me.<br />

In September, the Southport Artistry Committee began a new tradition--SoArt After Hours. I figured I would work on a piece for the Perfect Day show while I was enjoying social time with my artist friends. I had a lot of stress going on at the time, with a job I was unhappy with, my dad in the hospital, and my boyfriend having intense back pains. I just let the emotions flow out of me as I created this with an acryllic wash and ink droplets, which I have titled "Autumn Mist"Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14967084352150788459noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575754569923581993.post-22120453983116148992012-09-06T17:52:00.000-07:002012-11-27T15:43:50.750-08:00Watercolor and Ink<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This piece is very near to my heart. Although the photo is very unclear, it tells the ghost story that pervaded my youth at Cary Camp in Lafayette. Done with acrylics, this piece tells the Legend of Red Eye.

I feel this photo does not do this piece justice. Again, I was playing with watered acrylics, which add to the stormy effect of the background. And the waves also have silver/metallic whitecaps, tossing the flimsy boat easily.

I've decided that the next few pieces will be done in the same vein as the piece I did at the fair recently. I will incorporate tissue paper along with watered-down acrylics into dream-like abstract fantasy pieces. <br />

The concept is that you are to do a full piece of art in one day during the allotted hours. Below is my finished product. I used an acrylic wash as well as tissue paper to create an translucent texture. My work was pretty far from everything else that was turned in, but that makes me proud of its uniqueness. Priced at $99.<br />
