More Progress!

I think I might add some very slight finishing touches on this painting, but, for the most part, it's finished. I think my favorite combination of colors in this palette has to be the turquoise and purple, although I do love the contrast of that nearly-white lavender color.
I hope to have the completed work photographed and in my shop sometime next week. Be sure to look for it along with my other art!

Last night, at least for a little while, I was able to continue on my painting. I added more to the background, which included a large, pale lavender moon (is that lavender? maybe lilac? heh heh whatever it is I like the color in this case). I stopped for a little while and tended to a few things around the house while I contemplated just what should be in the foreground, and decided on a little floating island. I'm pleased with the way the island itself and the trees contrast with the background. I think after just a few small additions this painting will be finished and ready to list in my shop. :)

Hello there! My name is Jennifer, and I am the mother of five teens living in the Houston, Texas area. My life revolves around raising my kids, keeping the house from falling down around us and playing with paint, as well as a full time job as a title examiner.
I am a self-taught artist, using my creative and sometimes bizarre mind to come up with colors, shapes and scenes and transferring them from my my mind to a canvas or piece of paper. I love to experiment with different styles, colors, media and shapes in my artwork, so you might find me listing acrylics one week, watercolor the next, and then a mixed media collage after that. I create art because I love it - it makes me happy. I'm here to share that enjoyment with others. :)
