First, I found http://planetjanetart.com/ at the first Thursday art walk a couple months ago, and I fell in love with her work. Her art, and some photographs, were the only things that really caught my attention in the entire 619 building (partially because Donald Holman isn’t there anymore). I even took an encaustic class with her, of which everything I created I hated, and I decided, much like children, that I am glad there are other people in the world creating beautiful encaustics, so I don’t have to.
Now, through the joys of craigslist, I have discovered http://bridgewindsoup.com/, who appears to be doing similarly impossible-to-me things with watercolor, or at least watered down somethingorothers. I freaking love his artwork, and apparently he’s looking for a place to live in Seattle ’cause he’s moving here to go to art school. Far as I can tell, this kid doesn’t need art school. Sheesh.

In progress. Sat down after coming home from massage work and started on this one, painting outside on the deck. I stopped when it got dark, then picked up again after wasting an hour on another canvas I ended up rinsing off.
Requires a smoothing coat and repair in the upper left, but basically done.

I am very happily tired.
It was a very productive, enjoyable weekend for me. Saturday started, after having trained 3 times this week, with a bike ride up queen anne hill and a rehearsal for the fashion show I’m doing on Thursday. I was exhausted before the art-a-thon even began, and my performance, though well received and wisely put to forgiving music and shameless nakedness, was less than technically stellar.
Aside from performing Saturday evening, doing a wee bit of art modeling and working out on the silks a bit to get some pictures, I focused on one large project – painting an 8 foot by 4 foot panel. And paint that panel I did, after what I realized had been nearly 5 months without painting. ugh! Unacceptable.
