Last Night's Art....And A New Piece I Bought

in #art4 days ago (edited)
Happyyyyyyyyyyy Sunday !
Well! Here I am again. Did you set your clock up last night? I did, well, most of them are digital and they changed themselves, but I was up and playing at my art table when it all happened. LOL I was watching a collage paper making video on youtube, on my TV with one eye and working on my own art with the other, when I noticed it was almost two, so I pulled my laptop near me and sat there and stared at the time till it flipped from 1:59 PM to 3:00 PM. It was pretty neat. Then I went back to my art playing for another hour.
For that reason, here at 11 AM, I have only been up a few minutes more than an hour and and I am dashing this post in kind of quickly, so I can get ready to go to Mom's. I did get a shower in that hour and get my cup of water, a babybel cheese and a few Sesame Oat Sticks for a tiny, quickie breakfast... of a sort.
Night before last, I decided to put something over the little 8x8 heart painting I tried to put together for Valentines. Although it was several versions before I posted back then, the version I showed in the Valentine collage was it's last version and not something I was happy with, so it was due a do-over. I decided to build a collage over it. I started in one direction which turned out to not be a happy path, so part way through, a new direction emerged and this is how it ended up. Because I love bold bright colors, this version pleased me and now it is done.

I sometimes say when I post these close up, that they do look somewhat different from a few steps back. Although close up shows all the details, from a distance, sometimes the design or what pops out the most changes.
Below is where I hung it temporarily to see how it looks on the wall. You can see how some of the transparent areas that showed close up now look a little more solid

After that I worked on another art playing card. I think it might need one more thing, one more accessory....a final piece of jewelry as I sometimes humorously think of it. I didn't know what that was at the time and I needed some sleep before the sun came up, so this is how I left it.

This is my new purchase. She's big and colorful and fits right in here. The artist's name is Jenny Breniff. I found her art on DPW (Daily Paint Works). A lot of art on that site is small, but this one is not. It's a 30x24 and she had named it "Just Live!!". I had "liked" it long back, but in the last month, I decided it needed to join me, so I bought it. She fits in very beautifully here.
Jenny's page is at this link: https://www.dailypaintworks.com/Artists/jenny-breniff-8207

I have never watched the time change live! How fun. So do you rotate paintings or just build new walls?Love this new one!

Hi !

I tried to remember if I ever actually watched the time change before. I know at least a time or two, I have still been awake when it did change, but I don't remember ever watching as it did.

In my living area, mostly my favorite previous paintings are all over and the majority of those do not change. However, as you can imagine, I always feel like I am running out of walls! There is a huge "organization of art" project that I hope to do in the near future, where I will go through everything, to organize and decide what further I will do. I do have a wall or two in my work room that could hold more of them, if i could only get to the walls. LOL.... I need a much bigger house, between what I create and what I buy, it's getting a little crowded in here. I tell myself I will stop buying and sometimes there are long periods that I don't and then...... I find something and get crazy brain about it and decide I have to have it. I love it all.

It's a good problem to have! ♥️

It is!

it flipped from 1:59 PM to 3:00 PM

Oh, I don't like it when it happens haha. I feel like one hour of our life was stolen 😂

I went back to that post where that 8x8 still had the heart, it is from this post? If yes, wow - what a shift, I really like the result you got this time.

Yes! That is the one, the heart in the bottom right of the collage.

That is a saving grace about this type of art. A do-over is nearly always possible. I like to make a heart each year at Valentine's and I have several from the past years that I actually like and have kept. That time, although I changed it several times, I couldn't turn it into something I really liked. NOW.... I liked it.

We get the hour back in fall, although I wish we didn't. I wish we could stay on this saving time all year so the winter evenings wouldn't get dark so quick.

Thanks for stopping by!

John Denver said he was Leaving On a JET Plane. Does that count?

It might as well ! ha ha
