| Hummingbird on a Zinnia- 6x6 |
I love the boldness and sharp lines that are created here when I use a black sharpie marker in combination with acrylic paint to emphasize and outline the focal of each piece. These are a few examples of my work that I have finished in the past few months using this technique and I just wanted to share them again. I haven't really seen this style represented among other local artists and so I think it offers a unique illustrated look. They are also very fun to create and I love painting on smaller 6" x 6"x 2" square canvases but it looks great on a larger canvas too. Small, colorful, attention grabbing and very reasonably priced I think these would add some color to small spaces or in a grouping.
Some critics may say that outlining the art gives it a cheaper appearance but I love the combination of detail fine art and the illustrated comic look together. When these pieces are all laying around in my studio it feels like spring is in the air and they almost always make me smile when I look at them. I say FORGET THE CRITICS! In my happy little world, I am the creator and I create what I like!
