Bounty – A Still Life Exploration; Series Comple Bounty – A Still Life Exploration; Series Complete It seems that every harvest season I return to the forms of fruit and vegetables in an ever evolving exploration of their forms and colors. I’ve closed the series and am excited to offer it to you as a PDF eBook/catalog for the first time! Download your copy on the website at the bio link, no opt in required! The Bounty Series; I’m drawn to the luxuriant and rounded forms of fruits and vegetables and this series is directly inspired by the textures and layers of the ceaseless cycle of life and the seasons found in the gardens and forests of my home. #art #artist #drawing #artwork #painting #artistsoninstagram #art #draw #artstudiolife #studiolife #workingartist  #ashevilleartists  #mixedmediaartist  #painterslife #newartwork  #inmystudiotoday  #supportlocalartists  #whimsicalartwork  #colorfulpaintings  #studioartists  #artprocess  #artistsofinstagram  #modernmixedmedia #mixedmedia #stilllife #art2life #art2lifeworld #cvp2022 #art2life2022

WIP - Studio Shot 📷 I noticed that I had quite WIP - Studio Shot 📷 I noticed that I had quite a few pieces in various stages of completion sitting around. The larger ones are mixed media on canvas and the little ones in the window sill are mixed media on cradled panels. These are all moving together, like a flock of birds or school of fish, toward completion in another series of orbs and pods. #creative #creativelife #creativepeople #creativity #createeveryday #creativepractice #creativeprocess #everydaycreativity #studio #studiolife #shinydesigns #cvp2022 #art2life #CVP #mixedmedia #painting #artist
Pear No. 7 - One of my favorites from the Bounty s Pear No. 7 - One of my favorites from the Bounty series I really love the rounded shapes and rich colors of fruits and vegetables and seem to keep coming back to them. It's fall and it's timely that I've just finished a series of still life explorations of nature's bounty (see them all on the website link) and this pear is one of my favorites. I really like the pumpkins too but I always seem have a soft spot for the gourds. As another way of sharing, I'm also putting together a print/eBook catalog of this series and I hope that have that ready for you soon. #creative #creativelife #creativepeople #creativity #createeveryday #creativepractice #creativeprocess #everydaycreativity #studio #studiolife #shinydesigns #cvp2022 #art2life #CVP #stilllife #stilllifefruit #pearpainting #mixedmedia #painting #artist

I'm sure enough that this one is done that I've pu I'm sure enough that this one is done that I've put my signature mark on it but that doesn't always mean I won't tweak it a bit. Plus it still needs to be mounted and titled. And the title is eluding me right now...
