Finished Collage: Be a Work of Art...

" One Should Either Wear a Work of Art or Be a Work of Art"  ~ Oscar WIlde 

While I was finding just the perfect (purr-fect?) cat face for the collage I just finished I couldnt help but start a few more.  The pieces below are in progress and probably a ways from finishing. 

Vermont Doodles.

 Occasionally I get set on a theme. Seems like today the theme is Vermont.

I am lucky enough to have a life partner from Vermont. So, I gets to spend lots and lots of time in that frozen place. Despite all my best efforts, Vermont has really grown on me, despite its cold weather. 

 

2012 Collages

When I cant make myself paint, I try to make myself doodle or collage.

2012 Collage Art. 

True Story: people are much more likely to buy a $16 dollar collage print than a $500 painting. So, I have put a fair bit of effort into creating collage work this year. All the sales basically fund my supply of painting materials.

Here are most, but not all of my collage work this year.

2012 PAINTING REVIEW

I gotta say, its always tough to look back on my year of paintings. I always have the feeling that I still havent done the work I wanted to do. Here are several of the 2012 paintings. I couldn't quite find pictures of them all.  Most are oil on canvas and then there are the occasional watercolor.
