new stuff!

this summer my pieces have lots of purples and greens and a consistent floral motif. several are also built around song lyrics.






this last piece is the very beginning of a commissioned work. it's a scene from maurice sendak's children's book "where the wild things are". i've watered down my acrylics to give them a watercolor feel and am using a rubber cement resist on the monsters (you can tell where i've rubbed off some of the cement in the middle).
