Shhh (The Baby is Sleeping)

Title: Shhh (The Baby is Sleeping)

Completed in: 2008

Size: 8" x 8"

Materials: Acrylic on stretched canvas

MY REACTION: I love this piece. It is bright and sweet and open. With nice expressive brushwork.

CONTENT: Sleeping puppies are wonders to behold. Nothing lifts my spirits or fills my heart with joy as immediately as a tuckered out pup. Especially one with her plump pink belly all exposed.

ARTISTIC CONCERNS: These new pieces are looser, more free, more expressive than I have been in ages. More confident. Less concerned with perfection and more content to play and imagine.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW: This piece is on a stretched canvas. The fabric was stapled to the sides of the stretchers, but the sides are painted and do not detract. This painting would display nicely unframed either directly on the wall or on a small display stand.

SPECIAL NOTE: This site is gigantic. And it evolved over the course of ten years and 2,000 paintings. So far as I know, this is the largest single-artist portfolio website on the internet. Very exciting, but I am a technological boob and I maintain this site all by myself. That means there are glitches here and there. Some pages are outdated. Some formatting looks out of whack on different browsers. You get the idea. I apologize if you run into problems. PLEASE email me and tell me about 'em so I can fix them. Thank you!
