Enough of this silliness--here's some stuff to look at!
Plague House continues--I roughed in the other girls' faces yesterday...
And here's a new one I started for my June show: "The Winkle Picker" (very much in progress) oil, 8x10 inches.
And here's that still-untitled piece, with the progress I made today: It's giving me fits, and I think I'm overworking the hands, but I guess I have to let it take the direction it's going. It's so hard to control paintings--they wander where they will.
And here's two little pieces I started for Etsy--they aren't done yet, so it'll be awhile before they're listed.
*Lazy about updating blogs and photos (and housekeeping, and domesticating) and such, I'm not much of a lazy painter, though. Thank heavens.

these paintings are great . I especially love the last one you posted . what is the red mark on her ? what is the story to her ?
very interesting .....
Thanks so much!
As for the red mark in that last painting:
It's the hole where her heart should be. I think she must have given it to someone, but these stories always tend to evolve as the paintings progress.
We'll have to see!
Your work is lovely! It reminds me of a lot of what I reading these days...long, sad, somewhat gothic,, victorian novels and plays. Love it!
Ooh, thanks! I've been reading a lot of the same--I think it's been this awful, long, dreary winter we've been having. Give me melancholia!!
The last two I absolutely love!! One of these days I will own one of yours:)
Thanks Christine! Hopefully I can finish those darn paintings sometime soon--I haven't been able to spend much time on them.
um....whoa. really gorgeous. mary cassat would have loved your work.
Thanks Natasha! I can't imagine what Ms Cassatt would say about my work though--she'd probably rap me over the head with a paintbrush and tell me I needed discipline, or something!
