Aloha Tiki Tribe!
Got a call late last night, the gallery owner was going on the morning drive Radio show ( LAVA 105 FM) and was afraid he's freeze up, so asked me to go with him. It's always a hoot going on that show (done it a few times and the morning DJ's are such fun) - so I got up while it was still dark out, and went… like a good trooper.
We were talking about the big 6th Annual "BEST of the WEST" Art show, featuring all local artist… it give many a break to get into a gallery for the first time.
Last year was so big, we broke all previous records for attendance, artists involved, and art sold… so Gots ta do it again!
Now , on to the real work of making art…
You been reading my blog you know I've been having a problem. Blocked, from maybe back pain? Or it was all just mental? Well, I broke through.
For some reason, after my back procedure, I could not get the paint to do what I wanted. I could not smoothy shade my sunset sky…
Then I finally REMEMBERED: in fast drying acrylics, you do do rough shading, then layer it on top of other other semi-transparent rough shading, until together they look like smooth shading. (I think) Guess, I "forgot", or psyched myself out as I sat down to paint the first time after surgery.
(Ha! must be getting' Old and fed-gettin' stuff!)
Well, let's keep it going… see if I can make this sunset "WORK" finally!
LATERS!
