  Oil and acrylic  on canvas 36x36 by Julie Beth Wileman www.juliewileman.com

48x48 acrylic and oil on canvas Commissioned by size with the instructions to have fun!  That I did!  The day after I finished it I was having lunch with the patron who asked if she could take a picture of my ear.  I cautiously asked why?  She said I still had green paint on my ear.   www.juliewileman.com jbwileman@gmail.com

I have been taking a break from my traditional painting to experiment with something that has been used by a friend of mine for some time. Resin. At first I was terrified of it. I watched countless Youtube videos and read numerous "How to" articles online. I finally decided, "What do I have to lose." I found out I love it! It is messy at times, and can be unforgiving. Any little hair or dust can ruin your final product, but guess what??? You can sand it and add another layer, giving you another try to achieve perfection.  This painting was created using acrylic paints, Isopropyl alcohol, and micas.  Several layers of resin were poured instead of my usual varnishing technique. I love how the resin gives a glassy look and feel to the work. View other available works at my  Shop . www.melissaatorresart.com

Autumn's Color Style 11x14 oil on canvas. I created this as part of my drive to work series.  This hillside was lit with the glow of the early morning light. I couldn't wait to record this on canvas.  It was a joy to create using the palette knife with warm color. This is available for purchase. Thank you for viewing my art.

Persuasion II 24" x 48" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Palette Knife Painting Here are the two canvases together: Persuasion I & Persuasion II Diptych 48" x 48" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Using a palette knife to apply the layers of oil paints, this abstract was created with color and movement in mind.  The shapes of color overlap each other, and the oils blended into each other.  Greys, violets, magenta, pinks, corals, greens, and tangerine are the colors in this contemporary abstract.  The colors float across the canvas.  The paintings can be hung separately, or as a diptych.  Contact  Kay Wyne  for purchasing information.  Thanks, KMW

Just Breathe         For the past several years, I've been attracted to spherical objects. I feel a sense of greatness (in my modest way) when I render a simple shape into a touchable, "breathable "form.

This is a commissioned piece. The client sent me several pictures of paintings with similar colors but left it completely up to me. Using acrylic paints, coarse texture gel, modeling paste, clear structure gel, and alcohol (the rubbing, not drinking, kind, LOL) I created this. It was a fun process. VERY different for me.
