Alcohol Ink Paintings by Judy Wilder Dalton

6x9 on Yupo Paper Alcohol Ink Southwest Landscape Judy Wilder Dalton signature member  9x12 on Yupo Paper Alcohol Ink Sparkling Pears  Judy Wilder Dalton signature member I never really cared for the Yupo watercolor paper.  But I have discovered that Yupo paper and alcohol inks are the perfect match.  I love the clear bright colors that the inks give me.  And the fact that you can't really control the inks, only manipulate their movement,  make it so fun to meet that challenge with  each new painting. These are going like hotcakes and getting so much interest, that I have a class filled already  to try this medium.  I know everyone is going to love the challenge.   The alcohol inks also work beautifully with ceramic tiles..  They can be sealed with a varnish or covered in resin.  They make nice easel displayed works or sets of coasters.  These are some of my 4x4 ti...

Aspen Series III "unfinished" 72x48 Mark W. Malone

I seem to have gone Aspen crazy. I found a composition and palette that suits both my new found love of the palette knife and my penchant for the colors of the southwest. I am very unsure about this piece. Is it too "garish"? My first reaction was to go back and tone it down. Now, I think I won't. This is the first painting, in my mind, that looks feminine. Not a bad thing, just different. Your comments are welcome.

Aspen Series II 36x48 Oil on Canvas

The second in what I hope to be a large series of Aspen paintings. I am enjoying the learning process of using LOTS of impasto to add a rich texture to my work.

Mark W. Malone Navaho Dreams...V in series.....16x20

This is the fifth painting in this series. I think that these work very well in groups of three. To see what I mean, check out my website at http://www.mwmalonefineart.com/, Thank you.

Navaho Dreams...

These are the first 3(almost finished) pieces of a series that I think will eventually consist of 9. Each piece is a 16x20 gallery wrapped canvas and I am unsure whether to sign them on the front since they can be placed vertically to equal effect. I have been thinking about this series for some time now. My goals were to use a much more limited palette than is my custom, and to use colors evocative of the Southwest and Indian weavings. Fortunately, for me, they are also my favorite colors. I have decided to market these individually although I think they would look awesome in a grouping. I was initially going to put a resin over these when completed, but have decided against it. I have really enjoyed taking a break from my usual landscapes and diving into the world of abstracts. Sometimes these pieces take on a life of their own, in a sense, painting themselves through me as some sort of "medium". Thank you for viewing. If you would like to make an inquiry, please...

Sedona Inspired "Canyon Wall" by Judy Wilder-Dalton

22" x 28" Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas Judy Wilder-Dalton See the start of this one also on my Blog Canyon Wall was inspired by a recent trip to Sedona, Az.  The beginning of the painting is also posted on by blog at http://wilderartist.com . I worked on a very textured canvas.  One I had painted over a painting that I was not happy with.  In the texture I used a combination of liquid gesso and matte medium.  As it developed,  I realized that it was definitely an inspired painting. 

Judy Wilder-Dalton -Window with a View"

Judy Wilder-Dalton Window With a View 30"x40" Acrylic on Canvas In this painting, you will sense an interior view and exterior view depending on where you focus. It was painted with a warm palette inspired by the southwest.  It was a fun painting to do, and I love the results. It was given Best of Show in the 2010 exhibition ,  Melting Pot, Crossing Cultural Divides, at Gallery Main Street, Tyler, Texas.
