Bainbridge Island Winter Studio Tour Dec. 6-8, 2019

November 28, 2019 · Lel ·

It’s the start of the busy, busy season. Lots of fun, socializing, eating, and squeezing in work when you can. I’m happily prepping for the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour, happening the first weekend in December. I’m framing up my limited edition abstract paintings and Shapemaking prints. If you’re in the area, consider getting out of the house and taking the tour. It’s a fun way to explore Bainbridge Island and get in the holiday spirit. There are 56 Artists at 8 venues.

SoleProps on the tour

Friends Sandy Haight and Paula Gill are also on the BI Studio Tour. We’re members of a tightknit art group that has been meeting monthly for almost 20 years. (What?!) Sandy is showing her luscious watercolor “Florascapes,”and Paula her contemporary ceramic jewelry, art tiles, and prints. Look them up and say hello.


Wherever you are I hope you can get out and see some local art, maybe even find a special piece for yourself or loved one.

Thanks for reading.

Cropped to a square is an improvement (image 1). T Cropped to a square is an improvement (image 1). This is the painting shown in previous tape peeling reel post. The exercise is to use linear overlapping shapes (image 3) to jumpstart an abstract oil painting, from the Exploring Abstraction course by Jenny Nelson. None of the original marks are visible btw. 🤓🤷‍♀️

Mixed up a specified harmonious palette and added some juicy R&F oil sticks. I’m getting the push I wanted to move my digital abstract work into real world materials. Thanks to the Exploring Abstraction course by Jenny Nelson @nelsonpainter - I’m jazzed! 🤗
