Catching Up

I can't seem to catch up with the calendar these days.  In my head, I've just started June, but realized that tomorrow is tax day and that means the month is half gone and I haven't posted any art work for a while.  I have finished an acrylic/mixed media painting finally after several fits and starts.  It looks totally different from the concept I had when I started.  I guess that happens to other people also ... it's so encouraging to read other blogs and see that others sometimes get a block or change directions. At right is a photo of the original.  Bad lighting, but you get the idea..    I used fluid acrylics, modeling paste for texture, and a transfer.  Does anyone recognize the wide eyebrow?  I call the painting "My Muse". 

I like this photo that I did with my iPhone using the cool photo apps that let you add effects, frames, etc.  The app I used for this one was "Camera +" and the effect is called "Purple Haze".  It's much more mysterious than the original.
