Mixing it up

After focusing so intently on pastels for a spot of time, it was a nice mental break to switch to something utterly different: illustrations in mixed media.

For these works on board I used pencil, colored pencil, watercolor, watercolor pencil, iridescent pastels, ink, sharpies, my daughters' art supplies of all sorts, and perhaps something else I am forgetting....

I am going to take a better photo and repost

Julie at Gallery9 has asked me to do some work in a different vein for a show coming up Friday, August 3rd. I always am up for the challenge to see what can be produced under a time crunch.

These are fun illustration art for me to do and making them is oddly exhausting.

Photographing them in my dining room was horrible, but I was anxious to share them because they got me excited.

I can't tell which is my favorite and can't wait to do more.

Have suggestions for a subject or want to purchase one? Let me know in the comments, in an email (kimweineck@gmail.com) or on Facebook.

Thanks for reading!

STUDIO SALE!

After organizing and rearranging my studio space I have decided to clear out some work that hasn't found a home. The larger works are being donated to the Art Connection (check them out - a great organization) and the smaller ones I'm offering here until Friday, July 27, 2012.

Please email me/comment/call to let me know if you're interested in anything. I hope to hear from you.

Sold items have been removed from this post.

Which leaves nothing left.

Perhaps we'll visit this again nearer the holidays.

With thanks for your support of my work.
Happy summer!

Fruit studies

Recently I posted about some time spent painting with my girls. We did have such fun.

I had been jonesing to do some watercolor and experimenting, so I took this as the perfect opportunity to try.

In person, these pieces really look different because of the translucent, iridescent, and opaque materials used in combination. In this pear piece the red-violet striations seem to hover over the cobalt blue wash.

This strawberry was my first painting of our session and I like it best. I also painted from a sweet little real strawberry that Pippa kept asking me to eat. Too funny. Making little strokes with my paintbrush gave Lucy some ideas of her own.

Cool, right? Here are two watercolors by Lucy. The top right is a 'quick study, Momma," and then the other is her interpretation of the marks I was making. This little gem of my 4-year-old's work is now hanging in our kitchen. You know that Lucy couldn't be prouder.

Thanks for reading.
