Paula Reynolds Art Blog: Merry Painting
http://paulareynoldsartblog.blogspot.com/2011/12/merry-painting.html
Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Tuesday, December 20, 2011. This is another painting we did in an art class I taught a few weeks ago. Other than the fact that the junk Wal-Mart paints were either thin like water or thick like toothpaste, everyone's paintings came out fantastically well. Acrylics are fantastic. Make a mistake? Wait a minute and viola! The repeat participants are getting it. This painting only took us 3 hours were the first two took us almost 4. As I said, there really are no mistakes wit...I hav...

Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Wednesday, November 24, 2010. One for the Road". One for the Road". 18" x 24" x 1 5/8" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas. This is my next completed piece for my art gallery exhibit scheduled for May 2011. I'm really enjoying doing these cloud paintings. I love how you get the details of the close-up object with the huge puffy clouds in the background. It's gross. And sad. But mostly gross. And use of a spray bottle. Isn't this color just luscious? Tuesday, November 16, 2010.

Paula Reynolds Art Blog: April 2011
http://paulareynoldsartblog.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Monday, April 25, 2011. 16" x 40" acrylic on canvas. This painting was done, in part, for the Calypso Moon Artist Movement's April assignment. We were to paint something inspired by music. I selected the song "Supermassive Black Hole" by Muse. You know, from the movie. I created a painting for a friend based off of a painting in that movie, and although that was a few years ago, I've been wanting to paint one similar for myself. And when I think of Twilight.

Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Friday, July 29, 2011. This piece is a commissioned work based on my painting "Fronds for Life". I met the purchaser at my art show in May and she contacted me to paint a Fronds painting for her mother using teal and turquoise. I have learned a few things over the past year of accepting commissions:. 1 If you don't know the buyer, ask for 30% down, that way if your piece is rejected you can at least cover your cost. (Haven't actually done this one yet but I will next time! Subscr...

Paula Reynolds Art Blog: Art Instructor Me!
http://paulareynoldsartblog.blogspot.com/2011/11/art-instructor-me.html
Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Saturday, November 19, 2011. Last month I began teaching a monthly art class to the moms in my homeschool co-op. One of the co-op directors had the idea to have a monthly craft party, at night, NO CHILDREN. As you can imagine, we moms that homeschool don't get a whole lot of NO CHILDREN time. (Other than soccer, scouts, Awana, basketball, art classes, and all of the other socializing opportunities we have time to participate in.). There is a class offered through the Frame Shop o...

Paula Reynolds Art Blog: January 2011
http://paulareynoldsartblog.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Friday, January 28, 2011. 20" x 24" x 1.4" Acrylic on Gallery-wrapped canvas. I completed this painting for January's Calypso Moon Artist Movement. Challenge. Last month we were tasked with creating a website, opening an etsy.com store, or other online avenue in which to sell our art. Done. It took me quiet a while to paint this simply because of the small brushwork. But it's fun, colorful, and really adds a lot of color, drama, and POP to an otherwise boring wall!

Paula Reynolds Art Blog. Saturday, June 4, 2011. Macaroni and Cheese Wall Art. 30" x 48" x 1.625" acrylic on gallery-wrapped canvas. Yes I have a painting of a big bowl of mac-n-cheese on the wall of my dining room. How do you like those taupe walls and industrial vinyl flooring? Yes, government housing at it's best! It's a crappy painting copied off of an incredibly good painting done by someone else. I have redone this dang bowl sixteen times. Can't win them all, can you? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
