gold dust :: abstract art :: mixed media

i have an installation coming up at a local brewery & restaurant. i was inspired to do abstract pieces because i can walk away from them pretty easily with happiness. sometimes, when i work on more detailed pieces, i spend hours obsessing...

anyway, here are a few of my favorites. the pieces will all be hanging in the same room, so i wanted to go with a similar style. what do you think?

painting donation :: mixed media

yesterday, i told you how i'm helping raise money for the PAA by participating in 'dancing with the starz'. i am also donating some art for the silent auction. my first painting is above. i love her... she's vintage, beautiful and stylish. the perfect representation of urban sassafras!

rain paintings :: acrylic on canvas

we got a lot of rain last week.  as i sat on my porch painting, i was feeling frustrated with the piece i was working on.   i love abstract art, but for some reason, when i try to create it, the piece ends up looking like a pre-schooler did it.  then i had an idea...

i threw my canvas right out in the rain.  well, i mean, i didn't throw it.  but, you get the jist.

i'm currently obsessing over the results.  aren't they wonderful?!  and of course, after adding a bit of glitter (which makes everything better) i feel that these abstract pieces most certainly have meaning.

abstract gold :: acrylic on canvas

a couple paintings i have completed lately... i'm currently obsessing over gold accents on a canvas.  don't you think the gold just gives it that extra somethin' somethin'?
