NEW Altar Screen Painting...

I can't believe it's been a year since my last Altar Screen painting! So I decided to do another one in a Folk Art Tattered Saint style. It has three "panels" divided by arches, with a saint or angel on each side separated by flora and fuana. You can see my current paintings for sale by clicking**HERE**.

New Saints and Angels flying in.....

Well, I guess the Christmas shopping season is officially here. It seems I went to bed on Halloween and woke up to Christmas according to every T.V. ad and online store. So I am in overdrive now creating Saints and Angels....that means I will not be wearing any decent item of clothing that is not covered in paint until the week of Christmas,lol! Here are two of my newest creations,available on Ebay with a starting bid of .99, more to come! You can see my current paintings for sale by clicking**HERE**.

Earthy, Geologic Primitive Renaissance....

Okay, I'm not sure how to title this piece....I never know how to categorize my style of painting, and I really don't like trying. But anyway, here it goes.....Primitive Modern, Mixed Media, Tattered Renaissance,Earthy, Geologic original grungy Folk Art,Expressionist, Impressionist portrait painting! Well, that's not a practical title, I know,but it's all the styles/genres I love and enjoy painting. I try to incorporate a little bit of each one into my artwork.

New Spencerian Paintings.....

Spencerian Script is a script style that flourished in the United States from 1850 to 1925.

Platt Rogers Spencer, whose name the style bears, was impressed with the idea that America needed a penmanship style that could be written quickly, legibly, and elegantly to aid in matters of business correspondence as well as personal letter-writing.

Spencerian Script was developed in 1840, and began soon after to be taught in the school Spencer established specifically for that purpose. He quickly turned out graduates who left his school to start replicas of it abroad, and Spencerian Script thus began to reach the common schools. Spencer never saw the great success that his penmanship style enjoyed because he died in 1864, but his sons took upon themselves the mission of bringing their late father's dream to fruition.

This they did by publishing and distributing Spencer's unpublished book, Spencerian Key to Practical Penmanship, in 1866. Spencerian Script became the standard across the United States and remained so until the 1920s when the spreading popularity of the typewriter rendered its use as a prime method of business communication obsolete.

I've always loved the flourished Spencerian style birds and animals,so elegant. I used to paint Spencerian birds years ago, and had the urge to re-visit this style with three new paintings,including one Halloween theme. I will be listing these on Ebay tonight.
