new pieces

Here's what the studio table has looked like the past couple of days.

I have an opportunity to show some tiny wee little pieces in a small Seattle gallery and I only had a few things that were within the size guidelines. I put together some more oil paintings on a few panels that I already had and some little collages. I ended up having to order some frames online because I couldn't find any small enough that would let me put in a mat to keep the pieces off the glass. So I cut some really, really tiny mats - apparently I can cut a mat that's half an inch wide which I did not know before! Good to know :)

You've seen a few of these before...

...and these are new. These are 4x6" and 4x4".

Incidentally, these photos were taken during daylight hours. You'd never know it though...so gloomy today :P

Hello,
I like your work. The frames and panels work perfect with the geometry. Don't you just love the flexibility that collage gives you?

Nice work!

thanks, Belinda! I'm really excited, too :)

thanks to you too, Mary! I love when the frames make things look even better and yes, I definitely love how I can play with a collage before having to commit :) thanks for visiting!
