You all should be able to add new art in your regular method, then broadcast to the whole Critique Group the name of the pieces on which you wish comment / critique. You could also establish your own parameters to get the information from others that tells you what you want to know.

I suggested to Alan and Steph that you all talk among yourselves about what these should be. Also, you might want to read the comments about this on the Forum discussion.

My best friend since grade school (Jacqui Banaszynski) and I both paint with Fran Larsen in her Santa Fe studio every year. Jacqui lives in Seattle - and my friends call me Beck! I think we three are destined to meet one day.

I love the sense of motion in your paintings.

When I saw their discussion, I thought that we ought to start a crit group...whether within the ISS group or for the site at large, I am not sure. Steph and Alan have agreed to work on ground rules for such a site, and Steph suggested that you might want to be part of that. How about it?
You can check out what they said on the forum board...

Hope your painting is going well this summer!

Thank you for the comments on Wash Day - Helper. I'm just heading to the studio and I think I'm going to do another one...maybe more gesture. Your gesture in the scrubbing floor painting has inspired me. Also, don't you love doing paintings of the unexpected? I mean who does "mopping the bathroom floor" or "hanging wash"? Well maybe it has been done; but not as often as flowers (yes, I love flowers) but like really different flower paintings. I'm rambling....off to paint.

bathroom would be so pleasurable!

Profile Information

What medium do you work in?

I paint in acrylic using many layers. My color palette is usually vibrant, and my subject matter is anything that fascinates me in the moment. I love painting people, chickens, and plants. Lately I've been painting musical instruments, dogs, and step ladders.

About Me:

I am a full time painter and art instructor. I am fascinated by the creative process and how to continually delve deeper into my own creativity. I play the guitar, piano, and banjo, and am learning how to sing harmonies around the piano. I live in Seattle, WA with my husband, Bill, and my daughters, Sarah and Elise.
