Now that the first of the year has come and gone, I'm back to painting in my studio....vacation time is officially over at this point. While I love taking time off, I'm always eager to get back to things in my studio, much as I enjoy the break, I charish my creative time and usually feel very refreshed and ready to hit the easel once again with lots of new ideas. My first new painting of the year is a bit abstract and a bit whimsical as well - "Dancing Dandelions".
This is an acrylic triptych painting on 1 1/2" deep gallery canvas.
Each panel measures 4" x 12" for a total of 12" x 12" in all.
There are many ways to display this set of panels and I got a little creative with arranging them on my wall, for what I think is a fun display.
This set is eye catching because I used quite a bit of metallic pearl white to paint the dandelions. The painting shimmers and shines when it is hung on the wall. Now available at my ETSY shop:
www.artfulcreations.etsy.com . Just finishing up another triptych today so hopefully will be showing that one next week....stay tuned at any rate.

Hi Ruth,
Love your triptych. The colors and softness, yet airy in style is beautiful. Really a lift for the cold temps. You always create the best treasures.
So glad you enjoyed some down time. I did the same to recoup and rest my painting arm and shoulder. Back in the studio now and having a great time.
I have a couple wood triptychs to design that are for table top. You have inspired me to get them created.
Happy New Year my friend. I hope you have a very successful 2011.
Happy Painting.

You are off to a fantastic start Ruth! I seem to be in a bit of a rut, but hope to be back soon. I miss my paints and brushes! Lovely work!

Looks like you painted in colors that I love! And what a wonderful idea to do a grouping! Your art would make any home more beautiful! ♥

Wow, just lovely
Hi Ruth...I really like the way you incorporated the loose white lines and splotches at the top of each painting. It has a beautiful organic feel to it. Nice work! xox
