Homesick by

Acrylic, Acrylic gesso primer, acrylic medium (a bead, string, & paper) on stretched canvas – 30″×48″. I find acrylics very easy to use and that it can mimic other media textures too. I used brushes, pallete knives, & even my fingers.

I found that everytime I travelled by road, images of different houses and landscapes made me think so hard of home that I found myself longing to be back home.
And soon I started sketching these scenes as quickly as I could & noting the colours and forms, with little notes to remind me how/why they reminded me of home so much. So here is a finished painting from one of my sketches which, I hope to make into a series of paintings.

This painting won the watermedia challenge 958 Views (22/11/11) 83 Favourites (22/11/11)

The following groups have found my work worthy enough to be featured in their group’s pages…

To them, I say a big thank you for the honor & insipration.
