Finding my groove.....




It seems like so long since Ive really painted anything bigger than a 12 x 16 inch canvas or an A3 size piece on paper....time is just not on my side, and little by little, Im trying to find my way back to painting.  I look around my studio, and there is so many artworks that I have, that I just have not had the time to list in my Etsy store, or really even promote on my Facebook or Instagram page, or even do much with on Pinterest.  I just feel like Im chasing my own tail, but I so want to keep creating, and sometimes I am just so tired that I have lost the effort to do so.  The following artworks, I have really created out of trying to find and inspire myself to just 'play' around.  To try something different or just let my own mind wander.  I love to use colour and I have always loved to use flora and fauna as subjects in my artwork.  I love to make pretty patterns with stencils, mish mashing colours of ink and acrylic paints together....to find and use different techniques.  A lot is just playing around and seeing what comes to mind.  This technique is not necessarily a new idea, but for me its finding my groove when I feel so time poor and Im just tired, but ideas are racing in my head.  These are $75.00 each. You can purchase them by emailing me on juliemryder01@gmail.com or from my Etsy store which I will hopefully have them for sale shortly!
