It's time to prepare more wood panels for art.
To prepare wood panels, first they are cut to size; second, a notch in put in one side for hanging; third, they are sanded on all sides. Finally, each panel is gessoed and sanded three or four times with a 24-hour dry time between each layer of gesso drying. Then they are ready for the first layer of paint. :D
I have been painting cupcakes inspired by treats from my local bakery, Standard Market.
And really loving the fluffy frostings and cute decorations on top of each one.
Over the weekend I did a painting demo at Earth Angels Studios in Florida, NY.
People really liked the chickadees. But I feel like more people were impressed that I could paint sideways. :D
Almost finished!
What a great audience! Including online friends via Facebook live for @jensearthangels and other pages.
More of my art at her gallery, which is in an old ice house.
