Disgraceful Paintings

September 15th, 2020

Now don’t jump in and agree so quickly . . . I mean that they are sometimes disgracefully large when you need to move them around. Some sizes can be transported in my trusty Vee Dub Van but some need a good-sized truck to be taken north to appropriate galleries (those with large white walls) or to appropriate homes (those with large white walls) wherever they happen to be. But always fun delivering paintings whatever size they are! Contact me anytime if you want some out-sized art. This is what I do!

This tone-on-tone painting BTW is not finished yet! I paint in layers and the current layer (shown BELOW) has it now looking a bit like giant water-lilies so its work-in-progress title is Eau Fleurs de Lys in memory of Monet whose amazing gardens and waterlily ponds at Giverny, we visited in France several thousand years ago, along with several thousand other tourists at the time. Yes, well . . . what with the known arty results of Monet’s failing eyesight and all that, we have a lot in common! But mine’s not finished yet!!

And below . . . Giverny France – The Real Thing . . . photo taken by dear devoted husband at his very best.
