Eyes Only For You
This painting was just a fun summer themed painting. I was thinking about the state fairs that soon will be starting all over in the midwest and I wanted to paint some cows but I did not want to paint them in pens at the fair surrounded by people. The idea I came up with was to show a reflection in sunglasses from a fairgoers perspective with a cow looking at them. I may title this 36"x36" acrylic "Cow Eyes" but will have to decide at some point later.
Bonnie Raitt was in town for a concert and of course it was fantastic. I have been a fan of her music for a long time and she keeps making great music that tells a story. I saw her at the Minnesota state fair years ago and she still seems to have the edge for producing outstanding concerts. This artwork is seven foot tall by 32" wide all acrylic.
Because Bonnie screams Nashville to me the artwork of course had to feature the Nashville neon connection. I still have some work to do to the neon in this piece but its getting close to being done. Prints are available of this piece this week.
This is a watercolor sketch that started with watercolor dripped on a mat board by accident. I liked the light color tones and it appeared to me to look like a summer field, the only thing lacking from the composition was a bee and a butterfly chasing each other through the field. Inspiration comes from anywhere if you look at it hard enough.
