Mystical Mona - Contemporary Figurative Painting from Joanie Springer

Ah, Mona, at first she was brash and bold, and after looking her over a few days, I thought of using some tinted gesso to partially veil her. Methinks it worked!

Endless Time - Original Abstract Palette Knife Modern Art Red Painting by Texas Artist Filomena de Andrade Booth

Endless Time

30"x40"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

I recently completed this heavily textured painting by applying several coats of gesso and acrylic gels.  Before the layers were dry, I scraped and scratched into the surface with a variety of tools.  After blending the colors with heavy gloss gel, I applied the paint with palette knives, brushes and sponges.  The sculptural quality of the painting invites the viewer to touch the surface of the canvas.
