My initial goal was to keep more of the collage showing, but as this piece progressed, I realized that I wanted something with a pattern to it and it evolved to its present state. This is painted on a 16 x 20 inch cradled board and is for sale for $700.00.

True to my style, it also has layers of collaged materials underneath. It turned into a grid by accident as a stamped in the circles. I named it “Making Peace with Circles” because of the calm blue background and the fact that I do not like to work with circle shapes generally. They are too perfect and sort of boring. I tried to make them less than perfect. This piece was juried into the Colorado Watercolor Society‘s annual New Trends Show in Denver in September to take place at the CoArt Gallery in the Santa Fe Street art district.
It is for sale for $1200.00 framed.
THIS PIECE HAS SOLD.
