new works for a new month

I have an exiting new series that I am calling Artifacts. An artifact is an object made by humans that have cultural significance. A secondary meaning is something that occurs unintentionally either in science, medicine or mechanical reproduction. It also shows my unfortunate tendency to create painfully obvious word play- ARTifact.

There are two bands called, with various spellings, artifact. One from Nice, where my husband grew up and one from Norway, to which I don't even have a tenuous connection.


These two examples are not finished. I would like everyone to be surprised by how fantastic the finished paintings will look. I don't know if I'll be able to finish the lower one. The shapes are so satisfying to look at. They speak something to the depths of my being. I don't want to mar them but I don't want the paper to remain so exposed.

Art walk is the sixth of May. My studio will be open during the day for calmer viewing from 12 to 4. I'll take a two hour break and be back at 6pm until around 9:30. I hope to see some friendly faces there.
