(Bad Photo)This is a piece that was in a past show entitled: Foot Fetish. It was done on Gold Leaf and portrays the act of Chinese Foot Binding.

hey there say, wow, mtnmun... thanks for sharing, hot off the press...
say, all, i just learned about his guy...
http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?_adv_prop=image&fr=slv8-msgr&va=joaquin+sorolla+artist
i love what he does with white, sunlight and all that...
(said he did not like doing portraits as much, as it limited his
creativity in this 'sunlight' realm)...
right now, i am working on honing portraits etc, and doing things to
say 'thanks' to folks, in special ways...
here is a link, more of--who he was...
also, TWO of his painting, DOWN as to other light, became very
world-famous, in a whole new way...
(in the article, one as to a scientist with bunson-burner, and the other,
concerning children of valencia and the polio epidemic there)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joaqu%C3%ADn_Sorolla
but i like doing landscapes, trees, birds, and a few other outdoors with shadows, or night... i WANT to try the light, and the whiteness, i really
love that, just never got a chance to...
i have many picture that i too with CAMERA of what i love to see and do, so somedayyyyyyyyyyyyy,...
but--well, this guy has given me a few lessons, just by observation...
*will try to upload a painting example of his, soon...
there, say, it took twice, but i got it here, :))
check out the links that show the images...
really nice portrait of an older man... ?fisherman? not sure...

hey there say, all...
been working on a quilt, so am back here late, :)
here is my mom's birthday gift...
egg-tempera homemade, on clip-board, for want of
better board to put it on ...
this 'brand of wood' is supposed to be good for it, and
it sure did take well to it, with homemade
glue and babypowder gesso...
(will last long enough for my mom--still needs
about 6 months to 'cure' so they say...
usually i add oil paint after, on the few that i did,
but this looked nice without it, though not so detailed...
need to find a way to get the clipboard metal off, :))
first, :))
and here is a bird for her, meadow lark, on picture frame board,
need to get the frame back on it...
egg-tempera too, didn't add oil paint this time, either, though
i DID to the other bird paintings that i did of the robin, and the
woodthrush...
:)

Mtnmun, that is a large piece!
You have a very cool and unique style, love it!
Paul, I wish I had the time to study and learn from you.
Your work is fantastic and something to strive for.
You are truly a master.

The thread that keeps on giving.
Neebs,
Don't remove the metal clip, it's very cool and novel as is, IMO.
Tiki,
You should do a companion piece to the bound foot art above, with a modern climber and bouldering slippers. JK ;-)
Have you done any other pieces on gold leaf? Seems fun.
Phylp,
What are the sizes of your paintings? Love the road in thin yellow line. Looks dimensional in your photo. I did a painting in college, or maybe high school, I forget, with a hard edged graphic road arced right over a painterly mountain I hiked many times in my youth. It was Mt. Olympus, which looms above Salt Lake City in the Wasatch Front. It's one of those interesting rugged peaks that is so close to suburbia that you can be sitting on top, in a designated wilderness area, and yet hear people mowing their lawns way down below.

Not mine but bring a smile everytime I look at them.
edit: my feeble pics come nowhere near to capturing the quality of these paintings.

Sheesh, jtp...........not sure who did those last two paintings. Looks like the poor sot was in a bad way. Some kind of horrible illness on the brain perhaps ?
Still standing on your head?
DOH!

hey there say, phylp... i just sent it to my mom, today!!!
i put FAKE geranium leaves in the clip of the clipboard, but not enough
to cover the trees above the shed...
say, johntp, wow, oh my! the heron looks so special in the frame, :)
and tami... though i am not a big fan of orange and yellows,
i am of blues and white!!!
i LOVE that blue ice painting of yours...
well, uh, well, yeah, i DO feel very sad for the poor the 'ski-folk'
that went flying to the ol' 'davy jone's locker', so to speak...
but--on a happy note:
i can IMAGINE that he/she, or perhaps a trained trick
ski dog, :) was:
RESCUED!! :)
ever hopeful, i am, when i veiw art, :))
johntp and jody:
not meaning oranges or yellows of photography and fall--
i loved that photo of jody's...
i means, as to paint--just don't quite lean to the oranges
and yellows with any contrast...
do like oranges and brown though, :)

Don't know if they can be called art, but here are several intentionally loose hand drawn logos I've done recently at work. Nice to get off the computer as much as possible.
