Secrets Series #1


I am going to try something a little different. The paintings will vary in size, most will be quite large. The first is Sky, Forest and Pond done in a watery style. On two squares of recycled wood I have painted what is hidden in the Forest. A perfect robins nest, three robins egg blue eggs safe inside, far from prying eyes. In the bracken of the forest lies a newborn Fawn, safe in its ability to disappear into the colors at the bottom of the trees. Hidden from predators eyes.

The one I have started today will be Urban Secrets. Two Apartment buildings with soft sandstone colors, large windows impossible to see into on a sunny day. The secrets will be revealed on small canvases, one to be Despair, one to be Hope and one to be Death. We all wonder whats behind the windows we pass. In all of us is a little "peeping Tom" though we will deny it. #2 in my series will let you see what is hidden behind those windows.
