SPRING!

Sometimes I worry that my work gets too tight, and I've been feeling like that especially as of lately.  So I'm doing a bunch of these very fast paintings that will explore color and composition primarily.  I'm hoping that this will loosen things up.  

I'll be posting several of these in the next couple weeks, and all of them will be for sale.  I'm thinking 40 dollars?  So if you want one just let me know!

twenty bucks, for this? that's a steal, seriously. this is a beauty - you might be selling yourself a bit short. i really love it!

It is beautiful. There is usually a big payoff when we force ourselves to make a move.

It's a very subdued and understated composition, yet it conveys everything it needs to. Great job! It takes great constraint to leave that much negative space in an illustration. I love your use of colors. Wouldn't change a thing.

I definately love your choice of color and think this painting is extremely successful because of it.

okay if you are selling this for $20 but wanted to sell that girl thingy for like, $40, then you are in some weeeeird pricing world. BUMP UP THE PRICE, DAMMIT. unless this is really small. is this really small?

This is such a delightfully pleasant piece. And just for the record, I'd pay more than $20 for this.

Yeah, I am so glad i went to that lecture. I wish they had a recording of it or something.
And I may take you up on that offer. My mother actually saw it and freaked out a little about how pretty it is.
