Extra: March 2014

http://extraextrastephaniebaker.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Tuesday, March 18, 2014. Oil on canvas with a 5" tear. Look closely in this rip, it's my cat. This repair was more self-explanitory that the last. The most important part being the painting replication. I patched the back with a piece of size-appropriate canvas using Nova Gel, sanded the duct tape off the front (note: not a painting I own, or made) and primed the new patched "strip" area. Mixed new paint colors to match. Tuesday, March 18, 2014. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Extra: February 2014

http://extraextrastephaniebaker.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html

Monday, February 24, 2014. Two 36"x42", oil on wood panel portraits recently sold (very happy to say goodbye)! I couldn't send them off without fixing the warped curvature that made them unable to hang or lay flat. In the past, I attached an extra wire to two screws in the offending corners and twisted tight, which eventually was useless. New simple steps: corner brackets, and a 50" screen door turnbuckle.

Monday, January 27, 2014. 24"x30" acrylic on OSB. From here to there. Highway inspiration. Of course there are dozens of explanations, but it may have been stolen (the irony) because it's not there now. Monday, January 27, 2014. Links to this post. Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Just for the sake of place holders I used things that were unfinished (pear below) but only one shot per mural. New categories coming soon on scbaker.com. Wednesday, January 22, 2014.

Acrylic and mixed media on wood, 9"x5 1/2". Shameful to think that if my wallet had gone missing, so may have this little piece of paper. So I made it part of this piece. Shameful to know that it's doubtful I can use it as my resume. Friday, April 10, 2015. Little pieces of paper. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
