New Paintings and Updates

I created three 5 x7 watercolor and mixed media paintings last night. I think this is the fastest I have every painted- it was so fun! I am still working on the shadow boxes, which are taking some time to complete and have done another test with earth on clay board. I am finding it didn't stick as well as my earlier experiment and the Bioshield glaze is still causing sensitivity.

I am planning for a group show at Infinite Grace Gallery late summer or early fall, will be joining nmcreates website to sell my work and I am having my cd portfolio updated. Recently, I have joined 1,000 facebook artists and the facebook group -artists in New Mexico.

The first artist group meeting at Tribes Coffee House went well.

I have decided to start a monthly artists group to share information, support and socialize. I had fun created some mixed media/collage art tags this weekend. I am loving velum tape!!!

Wall Glaze

I experimented using wall glaze from Bioshield to adhere sand/earth to metal and it worked! I have been searching for some product that would hold it in place. I love experiments that work! I also mixed the wall glaze with pigment and that worked as well. However, the coating doesn't have the sheen I have hoped.
