Shell Design ..Semi Abstract...Pastel...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

This is another semi abstract design done in pastels over acrylics.

I simply love this process. I never know the outcome, and these designs are always a challenge to me.

The whole surface is eventually covered in pastels in the form of pastel pencils and the soft variety sticks, after a fluid start with liquid acrylics and water.

I chose this elongated format as an added challenge, this gets me away from the 'expected' and I like the surprise .

The substrate is a white Richeson Sanded Board , which are fast becoming my favorite substrate for this mixed media work.

Original image is 20" x 7.7" (unframed

$150 plus S/H

Coastal Interlace...Abstract... Pastel...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

COASTAL INTERLACE  is a slightly larger abstract image than the previous ones I have posted. 

In going to a bigger format, I had to really concentrate on CONNECTION and make the top half of the painting still be a part of the lower areas.

The board on which this is painted is a RICHESON sanded board. I had a failed landscape on this and did not want to toss the good board. Another reason for using these VERY FORGIVING surfaces. i am fast falling in love with them.

I simply washed it down and scrubbed away with an old brush moving the old pastels around. It did not remove all the landscape, however when it dried, I partially pre - wet again in places, and droozled (love that word) my LIQUID ACRYLICS  over areas..I waited till it dried, some patterns were there for me to enhance, some others I needed to totally make up.

I had to gradually cover my surface with pastels. The underneath acrylics just glowed with the pastel overlay.
As with all these abstracts, it could be turned in all directions, some better than others.
I had to think long and hard in finding the best way to look at the image. 

I also spent a lot longer (than my previous smaller abstracts)  painting this one today; perhaps the size,  however I truly had to think on all the design elements with this one. I am happy with it, I hope you also like it..
Time for wine!

                                              Image size of this one is 11" x 14" (unframed)

                                                                        $300 inc. S/H

Playground Escape...Abstract.. Watercolor and Liquid Acrylics..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

     This is another fun ABSTRACT in watercolors and liquid acrylics on watercolor paper.
I pass a play gym every day when I walk my dogs in the park, and the colors are always such fun.. All those angles are very eye catching to me as an artist.

Jazz Session...Abstract... Watercolor and Liquid Acrylic...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

   JAZZ SESSION  was a fun one to paint for me. I love color, and the painting just seemed to remind me of a jazz bar I frequented as a teenager in Sydney back in the late 1960's and early 1970's called Red Ned's.

This image was not planned out at all, and the music notes and part of a guitar came out of the paint.I love doing these sort of jigsaw puzzle paintings.

Caribbean Rhythm..Abstract... Watercolor and Liquid Acrylics..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

I think it's healthy for an artist to paint in a series of connecting images. One image helps the next, or at least that's what I hope.

These little paintings are very challenging, nothing (for me) is by chance, it's all by DESIGN.

My initial colors are LIQUID ACRYLICS and when they dry, I try to make the shapes and colors CONNECT.

I am sure my puppies think I am nuts, when I place these on the floor with mats on them, and walk around and around the image till I know which way is 'UP'.

They watch me intently, with a curious and accepting look.. I guess by now, they know that's just 'what I do'....SIGH..

Anyway, back to this image.. It is unframed and presented in a mat ready for framing.

Rhythm Of The Blues...Watercolor and Liquid Acrylics...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

RHYTHM OF THE BLUES  is another mixed water media piece. I am having a ball doing these little ones, and boy oh boy, they make me think!
It's all about DESIGN  and 'feeling' the painting, rather than copying something verbatim from a reference photo.
I felt this one was very 'MUSICAL' perhaps with that shape in the upper right, it sort of looks like a guitar..Hmmm?
Either way, this one makes me want to dance!

Urban Threads...Watercolor and Liquid Acrylics...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

URBAN THREADS  began as a loose throw in of liquid acrylics. 

The thought provoking part was working the shapes over and into this first throw.

I think abstract painting has to be the hardest genre for any artist. It truly makes the mind assess all  design elements 

                                             This painting is unframed. It is a 6" x 7.5" image.

Emergence...Abstract Design..Liquid Acrylics and Watercolor..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

EMERGENCE began as my previous posts,with a throw in of a variety of LIQUID ACRYLICS  and linear marks.

The idea of the DOLPHIN came as a last thought when I was almost finished.

I really just played with shapes and anchored the painting first, whether it is turned to a vertical or a horizontal format I felt it worked. The design was very LYRICAL with lots of movement and fun.

As there was a kind of dolphin shape emerging, I went with it. The head and a little of the tail was all I needed.

Earth Patterns 2... Liquid Acrylic and Watercolor...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

        This image is another small abstract done in LIQUID ACRYLICS  and WATERCOLOR.

I hope you are enjoying these excursions from my regular posts, I am having a great deal of fun with them.

Color and design are my pet passions as many of you already know. 

I seem to bounce from more realistic imagery to the abstractions. Right now I am in the latter mode.

This one began much the same way as the previous post. No notion of where I was going with it, just allowing myself the creativity of the layering process.

I decided to go with a more 'EARTHY' image, kind of rocky, kind of not.. this time.

This one is 6" x 10" unframed.
