fancy dancers

commission, 15"x22" (or so), acrylic on gesso board

another art deco-style piece that i was working on when i posted the one below a couple of weeks ago. it will hang near "beachy". i just never got around to posting it once i was finished.  

beachy

commission. 15"x22" (or so) on gesso board

i spent most of my day finishing up this piece. i wish i could have spent the day lounging on that beach. it looks breezy, peaceful...not too hot. all day while i was painting this piece i wondered if the woman on the far right felt excluded...no one is locking arms with her. or perhaps she was just enjoying the breeze, too. 

*disclaimer: i did not come up with this design on my own. it was an idea already given to me to re-work. another art deco piece to compliment the others. 

new year, new deco

13"x36", acrylic on board

happy new year! i hope you had a nice holiday. i certainly did. after taking off from painting for a good week and a half, i started back up on monday. i began by working on these two pieces. they will actually be featured with the other art deco pieces that i blogged about last september. like the others, i was given little images to work from that i then altered a bit. all that to say, i really cannot take full credit for what you see. these should be the last of the art deco series. 

a good eve to you! it's nice to be back. 

art deco continued...

a few months ago i wrote about some art deco samples i was working on for a residential project in north dallas. these are three more pieces that i completed this week for probable use. 

oh, and i did not come up with these ideas all on my own, but re-worked some ideas that they gave me. i cannot take the full credit!

art deco?

this is one of three mini-samples that i created for a future development in dallas that is wanting "art deco style" decor. the pieces will be presented for possible use in the development next week. i'm still in the process of finishing up the other two samples. we shall see how they turn out!
