"Art and music are to my soul, as food and water are to my body. I believe that they are two of God's most precious gifts to His children. As the author and giver of creativity, through these gifts, He has given us a portion of Himself. He created the very first canvas, magnificently painted it, and brought it to life" I am a full time artist, dividing my time between painting and teaching in my Colorado studio. Having painted on most every surface imaginable, at this time I work primarily on canvas, board, and paper. Though my style remains quite diverse, I believe I have the heart of an Abstract Expressionist, or even more accurately, an Action Expressionist, as I am most definitely an "action painter". Each painting is a journey , dictated by primarily by my current thoughts and emotions, be they happy, sad, peaceful or frenzied.It is a mysterious relationship, and is thrilling when the painting finally reveals itself, and our private journey becomes a story to share.

Abstract Expressionist Palette Knife Art Painting “Bladeworks #156-Coastal Abstract“ by International Abstract Artist Kimberly Conrad
FRESH OFF THE EASEL...

$117.00
Click HERE to purchase.
"Bladeworks #156-Coastal Abstract" was my painting for Day #17 in the 30 paintings in 30 days challenge I am doing with fellow artist Leslie Saeta.
So here is my theme for the challenge this year......This past year I redecorated my dining room, and collected artwork in various styles by my favorite artists from around the world, but all in a similar color palette and the result was lovely.
Actually, it all began with a beautiful painting of a woman in a cafe that I purchased in Cortona, Italy, which became the focal point of the room.
I also collected two still life pieces, an impressionist landscape, a floral piece, and an abstract expressionism piece, all in a similar palette.
That is my inspiration for this challenge. Each week, I will choose a new palette and complete 7 paintings within that palette.
I will try to create pieces that would exhibit beautifully together , but can also stand alone.
We shall see what shows up!!

Dandy Daisies by Atlantic Coast Painter Roxanne Steed
12"x12" oil on gessobord
Click here to purchase, or for more information.
This
was actually finished right before Christmas. I'm taking some of those
small florals ever larger. I'm really loving working on the gessobord,
but I know when I go to the super large paintings, I find it better to
work on canvas. The panels get extremely heavy at that size. So I do go
back and forth with surfaces, I have several that I like to work on for a
few different reasons. I'm finding a greater comfort zone combining
brushes with my palette knife work....at ALL sizes that I work in, from
tiny to enormous.

Clearing skies
following a rainy weekend.
Dry crisp breeze off of the water,
a sense of change surrounds me.
New colors are coming to the tidal marsh.
Subtle daily changes
that will be a remarkable difference

"What's Cookin'?" by Roxanne Steed
6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite artboard
"After all the trouble you go to, you get about as much actual "food" out of eating an artichoke as you would from licking 30 or 40 postage stamps."
- Miss Piggy
I feel like I've been keeping secret some of the new things I've been working on. These still-life set-ups have been so fun for me this winter. I've been more deliberate than ever about considering what actually gets to be "on-stage", and still considering every nuance of color complements. I've also been working on a variety of sizes, some as small as 6"x6" and going up to 12"x12" so far. If winter lasts really long, who knows, I may go even bigger on some of these!
"What's Cooking" has a favorite little copper pot with three red onions. It's a 6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite archival artboard. I am especially fond of red onions over white onions in most everything I cook. And of course, they had a task waiting for them as soon as I was finished painting! They went into a fine batch of Bermuda Fish Chowder! I hadn't cooked this in a long while, but I had recently found some "Outerbridges Sherry-Pepper sauce" at a specialty cooking store and couldn't wait to make this again! What's going into the soup-pot at your house?

Dueling Grannies by Roxanne Steed

Today I took up the challenge of my artist friend, Norma Wilson, of painting fruit. Following the pink & green kick I've been on...and the fact that I had a bag of Granny Smith apples in the fridge, the biggest part of the challenge was how to keep this simple, yet interesting! I really like setting up a strong light source for interesting shadow shapes...and the colors are always the most fascinating part to me!
Shoveled a good bit of snow on Tuesday. One of my friends suggested this for quicker snow removal! She suggested just cranking this up & backing out of the driveway would do it pretty quickly! hmm, it just might work! Don't know if I can get one hooked up on my van in time for the next storm though ;-) I do love my brilliant friends, I had the best belly laugh over this!
