Not sure if this was decisive or impulsive. I heard about a discounted canvas at a local art shop last Friday, and I imagined it was just what I needed to paint bigger.
How much bigger? Well, it’s 80 times bigger than my 6”x6” paintings. So big that it wouldn’t fit into the back of our CRV. So big that my daughter and I had to worry about the wind blowing us over as we carried it in a hail storm to my studio.
And here it sits, all 4 feet by 5 feet of it. It’s massive.
Now I have to figure out what to paint. There will be updates.
Here are some other things in the works. The “big” paintings here are 30”x22”.
Many more paintings to show soon at the Somerville Public Library in March and Somerville Open Studios in May.
