the great debate (now... THERE...... I've said it out loud)

I have been working on some mixed media art and making some things to mail out, including a very special card for Dear Nelle. While "playing" in the studio I have been working and thinking to decide what series of paintings I will work on next....

.....and methinks I will go with the animal series of paintings.

.......and for the gorgeous square canvas now on the easel I keep seeing a tiger's face.

I think a whole series of animals would be fun - my kind of animals with a twist of the surreal or fantasy element to them.... and here's the kicker..... I am thinking of starting the big mother nature painting that I have been dreaming of for a long time.... after some of the animal portraits are completed.

I think this series would make a great show with the centerpiece of the mother nature painting.

.... now..... THERE....... I've said it out loud and we'll see if it keeps feeling right now that I have declared it. It is a scary time, the start of a new series.... walking out onto a narrow bridge alone, and one it feels like you have never crossed before. It feels like that every time.
