"Conversation With Many Moons" - acrylic on aluminum panel, 11" x 14". Ready to frame, or can be leaned against a wall upon a shelf. Available here and at Artfinder.
What have we HERE?
The first painting inspired by the "Ten Minute Monsters" exercise my intern and I recently developed. The sketch began as a vegetable shape with a head. And after that - ZOOM - off to space I went.
This is a return to aluminum panel, which I can't resist. The surface is difficult to build layers upon, but will develop delicious textures with the help of a spray bottle and some paper towels. And the back is shiny like a mirror - unexpected bling. :)

We are just a couple days from June...a month which heralds the beginning of summer, Father's Day and Ron's 65th year-around-the-sun celebration. If you're in Portland this weekend and want to stop by to toast the old man, give me a shout. We will kick off his birthday month on Saturday. Let the wild rumpus begin!
2. The way those moons pop right off the aluminum panel is full-on 3-D magic!!!
The moons....the secret is charcoal pencil and a little smudge with a finger. The icing on the cake!
