UNTITLED - November 28, 2008 - Acrylic and Oil on Canvas

I had this one as a to-do given the four (4) day weekend. Pewter, metallic copper, and raw umber were the most heavily used here. The panel of thirds just seemed appropriate. Black/cement grey/raw umber were used as both filler and a means for obscuring some unwanted strokes created at the very start of this endeavor.

UNTITLED - August 9, 2008 - Oil on Canvas

The border is a Cadmium Red experiment that almost went awry. I cut it with some black and luckily managed to produce something that looks like sandalwood(?)

An experimentation with "watering down". Note, this is not the title.

UNTITLED - April 6, 2008 - Acryclic and Oil on Canvas

My OS crashed AGAIN today and corrupted my hard drive's main partition. Everything had to be reinstalled AND the taxes had to be re-done. Fortunately, Turbo-tax let's you re-download purchases that are less than 72 hours old. Anyway, the day's aggravation is depicted in this one but "What else is new?"

UNTITLED - April 6, 2008 - Acryclic and Oil on Canvas

Simply put, I just pictured a crudely executed few four (4) sided enclosures with black and red oxide and either copper or gold. Five days since my last piece means this was relatively quick work.

UNTITLED - November 2006 - Acrylic on Canvas

Accidentally shown along with the April 18 piece. I registered online for the exhibit but got errors during the submission process. I registered again and later learned that the exhibit coordinators actually received the first submission so as far as they were concerned I was showing a pair of works.

Frankly, the thick grey sections are what saved this mess. I was trying to do "something" that involved mixing black and dark umber---notice the left top to bottom and the bottom left to right--- that went awry. The grey was a bright idea I got on the way home from work just moments before being secretly annoyed at having to throw out 4' X 4' worth of canvas.
