A MELLOW WINTER DAY BY ARTIST SUE MARRAZZO

HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA WE HAVE A BLANKET OF SNOW ON EVERYTHING.
IT'S QUIET, SOLEMN, BEAUTIFUL AND IT MAKES ONE CONTEMPLATIVE. THE BEAUTY IS CLEAN, SIMPLE AND COLORLESS! THIS IS JUST WHAT AN ARTIST NEEDS TO CLEAR THEIR THOUGHTS. I'M GETTING INSPIRED BY THE SCENES ALL AROUND ME. I AM GETTING READY TO START CREATING ART THIS WEEK. I HAVE SOME UPCOMING SHOWS, AND EXHIBITS..THIS IS JUST A LITTLE CALM, MELLOW, COLORLESS, POST FOR THE NEW YEAR.
 I WISH ALL OF YOU A...
 HAPPY, HEALTHY AND COLORFUL NEW YEAR!!!

WHIMSY BY MIXED MEDIA ARTIST SUE MARRAZZO

THIS IS AN ENCAUSTIC / COLLAGE PAINTING THAT WAS CREATED WITH OIL PAINTS, FOUND COLLAGE PAPERS, BEESWAX, AND A HEAT GUN. THIS IS A VERY FREEING AND CREATIVE MEDIUM. EVERY TIME I PAINT WITH BEESWAX, RESIN AND OIL PAINTS I LEARN SOMETHING NEW ABOUT THE PROCESS. IT'S TEXTURED, LAYERED, AND INTERESTING TO VIEW. I AM INTRIGUED, AND DRAWN TO THIS TYPE OF PAINTING. I RECENTLY PURCHASED ALL NEW COLORS...I HOPE TO WORK ON SOME NEW ENCAUSTIC ART REAL SOON. ALL I NEED IS A NICE DRY DAY...SINCE I PAINT THIS WAY OUTSIDE ON MY DECK. WHEN I DO...I WILL SHARE MY CREATIONS ON THIS BLOG AND ON ANOTHER BLOG THAT I BELONG TO: WWW.DAILYPAINTERSOFPENNSYLVANIA.BLOGSPOT.COM
