It’s a bright sunny day for painting. I am working on a commission piece for a designer in Sarasota. It is turning out great! Using lots of texture and metallic paints. From Earth tones to Warm Silvers. Will post it in a couple of days. The painting is almost done.
Just uploaded my new three part you tube video of me painting this painting. Pretty excited and a lot of work. Thanks for your help Ryan!
Just wanted to wish everyone a wonderful day full of love and happiness. Be sure to come to downtown Sarasota this weekend and check out the fine art show which includes Eileen Fineran Artist.
I went to the Sarasota Boys & Girls Club 2012 Designer Showcase House this past week. It was interesting to see all the color trends that are out in textiles and to translate them into my acrylic art pieces. The custom art pieces I did for Holly Dennis Designs looked great hanging in the guest bedroom!
The five mixed media gallery wrapped canvas series I did for Holly Dennis for the guest bedroom of the 2012 Boys and Girls Club of America Showcase House made it onto the news! Check it out at http://www.mysuncoast.com/mediacenter/local.aspx under the Suncoast Scene Video. (it’s at the end of the story)
Another great day of painting at the Sarasota Art Center. Learning such new and interesting things…Like painting straight out of the tube of acrylic paint and using tin foil to create spider like lines with the paint onto the canvas.
Today was an exciting day in the art class I am taking from Fernando Madridejos at Sarasota Center for the Arts. He showed the class a wonderful technique using Tube Acrylic paints. I took the tube of paint and squirted it on the canvas and then used a wet paper towel to move and blend the paint together. It gives a wonderful soft look to a piece of art. Picture coming in a week or two!
The ASID Showcase House in Sarasota is going to be up and running next week. Check out Holly Dennis’ guest bedroom. It turned out beautifully and I am the featured Artist in the room. I have a series of 5 gallery wrapped pieces in the guest room a pair of wrapped canvases in the on suite.
I had the second art class a couple days ago and learned a few new techniques like using rubber cement and candle wax in the art piece. Tried out the wax idea yesterday on an ongoing acrylic painting with much success! Will post when the painting is done. Website looking good moving on to Facebook today!
Just finished my first day at a new art class on Mixed Media and Abstract Art. I worked on four new acrylic paintings. I can’t wait to see the finished pieces. One is a city scene and another is a time piece. The picture is of me at work on a couple of abstract art pieces.
