Katie, bar the door!

Finished this piece this morning. It was a fight until the end, culminating in a blue glaze and the complete removal of the original surface.

The Firehouse at Dawn

I reworked the surface, and now I'm happy with it.

I feel that this piece, as well as Glasser, are on a whole new level when compared to all my other work. The old paintings look dingy and stiff to me now, while the two new ones look so colorful and fresh.

With unsanded edges and untrimmed top and bottom, this new 20"x20" piece is a departure from what I typically do, and I'm still trying to decide how I feel about it.

Thumbnail image for printing_380.jpg

This morning I built & gesso-ed two new canvases, and tonight I laid down the first layer of paint and paper, and imprinted dozens of strips for future use.

Last night I discovered a technique whereby I can remove the residual paper from the surface of the canvas without damaging the layers of paint below.

Tonight's work

Friday May 15, 2009, 22:51

Currently, this web site is the work in progress. I'm also working on a couple of 20"x20" paintings, and once I get new sand paper for my sander I'll be ripping into them. Hopefully this will occur tomorrow.
