Conundrum

Here's the final piece of the first eight for the "Decomposition" series. This one is "Conundrum," 50" x 36", pigment and stain on canvas.

Passage

This is the seventh piece in the "Decomposition" series. It's titled "Passage," and it's 56" x 42", pigment and stain on canvas.

Painting in Search of a Name

This is the latest in my "Decomposition" series, 48" x 36". It's in search of a name, in case you have any suggestions.

Update: My mom suggested the title "Blowing in the Wind." That's good! I like that. I'll go with it.

Mushrooms

One of the mold pieces is growing little white mushrooms! I've never seen that before.

Schism

This is the latest in the "Decomposition" series -- "Schism," 48" x 36", pigment and stain on canvas.

Cucumbers

This piece of canvas was created by molded sliced cucumbers. I especially like the pinks and yellows that devveloped. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet.

Painting in the Park

I'm looking for a technique I can use at an upcoming outdoor show in October. I have to paint at the show, and my work doesn't exactly lend itself to either working outdoors or working quickly. Not to mention working while people watch me! Oh well . . . it will be an interesting experiment.

These are some test pieces I created today. You can't tell from the pictures, but the yellow is a metallic gold. Like everything else, they look better in person. What do you think? Does this technique have potential?
