Hello readers. It has been about 8 months since my last post and some of you may be wondering what happened to me. Somehow I got bit by a tick and now I have Lyme Disease! It has been pretty rough here for the past 6 months.
In addition to the Lyme Symptoms I am on a high dosage of antibiotics which cause an assortment of side effects. Luckily I have great friends who have been keeping me company and taking good care of me.
Sadly I haven't been able to paint since I have become ill and I spend most days in my comfy bed. I plan on continuing to post here when I can to share my experiences with Lyme Disease.
Hi, I just uploaded a few new paintings to my Etsy store!
Enjoy!
Here are two images from the Opening Reception for the "Representing Abstraction" show at the Museum Of Northwest Art in La Connor, WA.
I wasn't able to attend the opening, but my husband represented me.
I have been working all summer on a series of 5 large paintings for a show at the Museum of Northwest Art in La Connor, WA. The show is titled "Representing Abstraction" with art from Mary Iverson, Margie Livingston, Philip Govedare and John Keppelman. Here are 3 pieces I just finished for the show!
I was recently invited to paint a 15x7' mural in Burien, WA, a small community near Seattle, WA.
I had 2 days to complete the mural during their annual strawberry festival. The mural was painted on 4 wooden panels attached to a double car garage door. The garage was part of the Burien Art Gallery, a little building in a beautiful wooded park. I enjoyed painting under the tall pine trees. Some folks from the Moshier Art Center were set up next to me throwing pottery. Behind the garage a stage was set up and I got to listen to live music all day. My favorites were a traditional West African music and dance group Sohoyini(www.sohoyini.com) and a Western Swing band The Jangles (www.janglesband.com). I had a great time spending two days in such a lovely setting and getting to talk to the friendly people from the community. The best part about painting in public is getting to talk to people all day. I love the way art brings people together!
I have more pics of the completed mural stuck on my cell phone, because of course I got half way to Burien and realized I forgot to pack the camera....so as soon as I figure out how to get the images off my cell phone I will upload them!
Hi folks, I just uploaded 11 new paintings on my Etsy shop kelcan.etsy.com.
All paintings are under $100!! Here are two of my favorites:
Hello. Here are 2 photo's for your enjoyment. The shots are of the wall in my studio. The paintings hanging on the wall are in varios stages of completion. They are all new pieces I have been working on for a show at the Guardion Gallery in June. I love working on all the pieces at one time. Having them all hanging together helps me see how they relate to each other. I love getting to spend time looking at the complex underpainting and know that it will one day be covered up.
Here is a glimps into my studio today
