Interior Paintings

Green Couch
mixed media on canvas
16 x 20 inch

Painting interiors, especially simple ones can be so pleasing.  These are mixed media works, but mostly done with acrylic paint.  I used cut papers for the pillows, lamps and coffee table in the couch painting, and on the chairs in the table painting.  I have another one in the works that is a kitchen scene.  I feel most at home with the kitchen painting because I spend so much time in my real kitchen.

Both of these are now at Tessera Fine Art Gallery here in Wichita.  I usually take my new pieces to the gallery and the rest of my art gets listed on Etsy.  Someone asked me if I wanted to do art fairs and festivals at some point.  I haven't taken that avenue because of having to buy equipment like a tent and the surfaces to hang the paintings on.  Plus, you have to find a way to take credit cards.  And there is weather to think about also.  Kansas is pretty windy, a bit risky when you are dealing with one-of-a-kind work you spent hours and hours creating.  Lastly, I am too energetic to hold still for two or three days.  I would be miserable sitting, sitting, sitting.  

I hope you have had a great beginning of your week!
