What's In My Studio Today? Mixed Media Original Collage on Wood - NEW!

 

What's In My Studio Today?

 

 

 

Mockingbird Song

 

Collage Inspiration

 

 

 

I had fun creating this mixed media collage. It has a variety of materials - including; acrylic paint, handmade paper, maps, and oil bars.

 

 

 

My daughter is learning about the State of Texas and various facts; including the state bird - the Mockingbird.

She told me that the Mockingbird songs are over a dozen in variety. Come to find out, they actually have up to 200 songs!

 They are also very territorial of their space and especially their nest.  They will attempt to fly at anyone who threatens their space as well as make a very loud noise to let you know they are upset. We have Mockingbirds that nest around our yard and we can hear them singing as they protect their homes.

 

This collage painting is inspired by the Mockingbird and it's many songs.

Do you notice the little house?  If you have been following my blog...you know my love for using the house image in my work and my art challenge, A painted House A Day.

By the way...I am working hard to frame all of the house paintings.

The show is January 26th, 2015!

If you are new here, you will have to read back on my posts to see what I have been up to.

Mockingbird Song 

 

 

This art can be displayed hanging on the wall or standing on a shelf.

Very interesting...

Texas designated the mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) as official state bird in 1927. Northern Mockingbirds have extraordinary vocal abilities - they can sing up to 200 songs, including the songs of other birds, insect and amphibian sounds, even an occasional mechanical noise. The northern mockingbird is also the state bird of Florida, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi.

The Texas legislature noted that the mockingbird:

"...is found in all parts of the State, in winter and
in summer, in the city and in the country, on the prairie and in the woods and hills...is a singer of distinctive type, a fighter for the protection of his home, falling, if need be, in its defense, like any true Texan..."

ORIGINAL Abstract Mixed Media Painting - NEW!!! "Walking with Fall"

Hi!
Thanks for stopping by!

I started a new series called, "Walking with Fall."  I finished the first painting in this series just yesterday.  This series is inspired by the cool crisp mornings we have had here in Texas.  Well, we have really only had two of these mornings, but I will take it!  I hope more will follow. It is so nice to head out the door with a lightweight sweatshirt to walk my daughter to school.  It feels like fall!
 Fall is now my favorite time of the year, with all of the changes it brings from the hot summer, it is a welcoming season.

This is the first painting in this series. It is a mixed media abstract painting.  I used acrylic paints, oil sticks, paper, pencil, and gloss gel medium.

Can you find the house?  I guess I will continue to use house images in my work.

Hi!

 

I am working on completing the Alberta Street series.

I hope you enjoy house #158!  This series was inspired by the neighborhood I lived in, in Portland, Oregon. If you ever get a chance to visit; it is a whimsical, funky, artsy, and vibrant community with lots to explore.

Check back on Monday to see three more painted houses in this Alberta Street series.  I don't post houses on the weekend...but I can't wait to share with you on Monday.

I came across some old maps I had used, when we were living in Kansas at Fort Leavenworth. http://www.kansastravel.org/fortleavenworth.htm  I think this may turn into a new series...Maps.
I like how it turned out.

Hi!

I will be working on going back and painting each new daily house, to complete my past series.  I want each house to have a complete set of nine houses. 

Here is the first house to add to an older series, Poppy Lane.

"Black is my favorite color.  It's limitless. It's indefinable. It keeps you guessing.  When there's nothing else to see, you're forced to imagine.  It makes every shape,  every person more mysterious because you can't see all the details."
-- Katie Kacvinsky, Middle Ground
