Well, Its been a very busy month. Started out real slow, work was cutting shifts, than next schedule for first half of may laneded and every body was working full time hours.
It was nice to have the work... but sometimes its hard to make plans.. nature of life right now for lots a folks..
Aside from work lots on the plate this month working on two large works for the local June / July juried show. the theme of the show is "music as muse". One is 32 inches by 48 inches total size, consisting of 4 seperate canvases
and is an abstract based on the songs My Hometown and Glory Days, by Bruce Springsteen. Using the shapes from the backsides of buildings in the downtown. Unfortunatly this one did not get finished, so i will submit in the October show. Its close but needs more work.
The second one is an abstract called Hiddin Journeys. It is based on Hotel California by the Eagles and Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen. It is five canvases with a total size of 32 by 40. and I built a mounting frame work out of reused lumber left over from building a house last summer (thanks Marvin). I submit on saturday, hope fully gets in the show. It has been Photographed and will be posted soon.
Starting to develop plans for 14 day painting trip in august, Probably canoeing Ahmic lake near Burks falls. friends have a cottagee near there and have offered to loan me there canoe. still working out the details, More latter.
Painting above is based on my trip to venice in 1988. Wonder full city.
