Exhale Chocolate
I am at the front of the sidewalk and lots of people walk by as paint.
I started plant paintings in 2012 with my handling chaos series diptychs. Today I am thinking about that series because I packed the 16 paintings in my car this morning and drove them down to the Manitoba Arts Network office. My show is going on tour to rural venues for a year.
The narrow leaf sunflowers emanate chocolate fragrance. So I paint like chocolate, chunky at the bottom and soft and swooshy at the top. It is is clumsy at the bottom and elegant at the top. It is almost like a diptych in one painting.
