DETACHED and detaching (a new series for May – June 2025)
Why are the bowls floating?
Is the floor going up or down or is that the tablecloth?
That tea cup has double shadows.
Some objects are painted clearly while others are blurred?
Detached from reality !
I’m experimenting working in a mixture of watercolor and soft pastel and discovering how pigments either wash into each other or work alone.
Mostly what I’m learning in the creation of this artwork, is that my muse is living a good life and I have so much to learn.
