"Forever Blowing Bubbles" Goes Neon by Lynda Cookson
It's children who keep us young. Even when they're not so young themselves ... or maybe especially because they're not so young themselves! My son, who is not that far off 40 years old, has moved on from keeping me up to date with the latest in music, to keeping me up to date with what I can do with Photoshop.
Here's one of the results. I took my "Forever Blowing Bubbles" oil painting and turned it into neon line art ... such fun! Both are now available on Etsy.

"THE ARTIST SEES WHAT OTHERS ONLY CATCH A GLIMPSE OF ." Leonardo da Vinci
A self-taught artist and a late bloomer. I began painting as an outlet while attending college, in mid-life. My field of study was demanding and stressful and I needed a creative outlet. I fell in love with the feel of the brush and paint as it flowed on the canvas. I continue to be blessed to study with some awesome gifted artists. The most important roles in my life, wife, mother and grandmother, I was a "early bloomer" but there are many joys in being a late bloomer. God has richly blessed me. I sing His praises through brush strokes and color.

"A Hint of Lace" by Lynda Cookson
I'm chuckling to myself this morning working with this image. Somehow my brain thought there was a song from the rock 'n roll era with the words "A hint of lace" in the lyrics but a search on google didn't bring any such song up ... so I am left to surmise that it is just another case of me singing heartily but using the wrong words in a song! Sigh .... I think we've all done that!
This is a mixed media painting in oil, with the background produced using palette knife, a collage of pink tissue paper and black lace, and what I felt to be the lyrics of that elusive (non-existent? LOL) song represented by dancing lines of gold liner paint.
"A Hint of Lace" is for sale as an original painting - CLICK HERE
and will soon be available as an instant image download .... I'll let you know when.

Playing with Paint, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 10x10x3" Abstract Oil Painting
Today is gray, foggy and damp, so I decided to post the most fun painting I could find.
 | |
 I painted it on a 8x8x3" canvas, so even the shape is unique. It's chunky and cute and it resides on a bookshelf , where it brightens the whole room. I cannot help but smile each time I look at it. The canvas was a mistake. I did not realize how deep it was when I ordered it. What could I possibly do with it? Well, for this painting, I think it is perfect! Have a fantastic day!

Charcoal Line Drawings on Monoprints by Lynda Cookson
I have been having fun sorting paintings from my stock. They've been packed away for a while and are only being brought out now for some Open Studio days during summer.
Here's a rather different collection of 4 Charcoal Line Drawings on Original Abstract Monoprints.
During a couple of life drawing classes a few years back I found two of the models to be rather grumpy in temperament which put me off formal drawings. Instead I produced comical line drawings to counter their grumpiness. Later I repeated the ones I liked onto original abstract monoprints.

"Sweeping Landscape" by Lynda Cookson
Ta da! A freely painted, abstract, palette knife, oil painting which made me feel happy to create ... at the end of a long day consider and repainting ... then considering and repainting ... then considering again and repainting again ... that large piece which is dominating my life at the moment.
I think I should dedicate this painting to my very supportive husband, Alan, who, whilst helping me move two large canvases, got white oil paint on a favourite jacket. And he's still talking to me!

"Now and Zen in White" by Lynda Cookson
This one's for me and will probably find a permanent in our Milly the Motorhome :-) I started out aiming to paint the Buddha which sits at my desk (called "Now and Zen") and put in this white underpainting. And there I stopped! I love it ... it seems to represent to me everything that the Zen philosophy is - simple, pure, peaceful and with a depth you have to look for to find. It's mine, mine, mine. :-)

"Be My Valentine" by Lynda Cookson
Another challenge painting (which, funnily enough, I did use a palette knife on when I was moving the paint in the middle of the two big red flowers!) ... watercolour on Yupo Paper.
I find it keeps me fresh to be fiddling with watercolour or a craft object during the palette knife painting of a more formal painting. Otherwise I tend to fiddle with the formal painting and usually ruin it in some way LOL

Blasted my painting mojo back into place this morning with a bit of vigour.
I absolutely LOVE abstract work ... it's exciting, unpredictable (love that bit!), constantly holds your attention and tickles your imagination with just the biggest feather! Plus more, but I'm too excited to think of the correct words right now.
Perhaps enthusiasm is the right word ... abstract can make my enthusiasm simply burst!
So lovely to be back painting.
