Almost Mini Sizes
A Little Bit of a Story
As I embarked on this "small project" I had a particular goal in mind...EXPLORING SHAPES!
I thought that as young children are looking at art they should be aware of the various ways that artists keep their viewers moving their eyes thru a flat surface.
When parents discuss art with their children, a dialogue develops.
Art is stimulating and offers a totally different opportunity to create conversations with young and older viewers. Each viewer will see something that attracts his/her attention more readily than the other observers. And, wow....then the dialogue explodes.
I loved even playing with the edges of these paintings. No need for a frame...just more opportunity to see the free spirit of artistic creations!
Please check out the "Birds' Eye View" below the four paintings.
Thanks for listening.
Each of these pieces has a new home except for "A Slice of Life"

Miniest
(actually a scrabble word: an adjective -- see "Mini")
I decided I would challenge myself with "tiny" images
that remain under 12" x 12" and priced for less than $200.
It has been an exciting change-up,
and one I hope to continue exploring for it's own sake.
And, perhaps I might find the projects
useful as stepping stones for another painting series.
Either way, I hope you will enjoy my color and whimsey,
as well as my continuous exploration.
