In October I was approached about creating a minimalist painting of a wolf for a tattoo design. The specific concept was a wolf, walking up a hill, pauses to look back over its shoulder at the viewer. One of the things I love about the small minimalist commissions is that I can make multiple finished renditions for a single commission, so the customer gets exactly what they want.

Minimalist Wolf Looking Back 1 & 2She liked the look of the first one, except for the placement of the head and the line of the outer cheek, so I created a third version for her to review.

The third version is the one she chose for her commission.

The lovely ladies over at MANDEM have been sharing calls for art with me, so I have decided to start participating in some MailArt projects. My first foray into MailArt is for the “Traces” call, presented by 5Blanks. The deadline isn’t until June 15th, so while there’s not much time left, if you want to get into the project look at the details and get your art over there.
At this point it does not even have postage on it, because, frankly, I’m not sure how much postage it will need. I look forward to seeing the image posted on the other end, and what traces of its travels will mark its surface.
My submission to the project is a minimalist brush marker red fox trotting across the paper.

When the fox passes on it’s silent path, in no time at all, all that remains are the barest Traces.

This morning I finished the large version of a logo for Pawsitive Memories, a pet hospice and memorial service based out of San Antonia, Texas. The 7″x10″ proof version was scanned for use as their logo, and the 16″x20″ large painting is ready for framing.
Both paintings are painted in watercolor on watercolor paper.
I am honored to have been chosen to paint the new logo for such a wonderful business.

I’m in a busy push to get more art finished before Clockwork Alchemy next weekend. I did take photos of the corded regency corset on my friend, but I may not have time to post them until after the event.
In the meantime, what I have ready to show you are six larger impasto acrylic paintings on gallery wrapped canvas, all of which will be for sale in the Artist Bazaar at Clockwork Alchemy.
