Pinkie, Reworked
FINISHED: "Pinkie," from The Beribboned Series, 12" x 16", acrylics on panel. Available (when finished) to the first asking nicely, $579 (includes s&h inside the US). Thank you so much.
Pinkie got a facelift, literally. I put all my references away, including the ribbon setup. I redrew her features from memory, then decided that she needed to be a lighter value than the ribbon. Then I adjusted the bow a bit, too, and tucked her ear behind, so it all perched perfectly on her head.
Because I was able to listen to the painting (instead of being married to my references and original concept), Pinkie's portrait turned out far nicer.

Minnie Loves Playing Dressup
"Minnie Loves Playing Dressup," (yes, that's a bit of glare on this one as it's a gray day and I'm working under studio lights), 16" x 20" x .75", acrylics on cradeled panel (and painted around the sides, so no need to frame!). $699 for this dear little mouse, including s&h inside the US. Inquiries to me, and thank you so much.
Minnie made me laugh all day long. She's got a great sense of humor.
She is also done overtop another piece that had lots of texture, which is delightfully showing through. Harlequin patterning and various scratched in lines/patterns.

Pinkie, in Process
IN PROCESS: "Pinkie," from The Beribboned Series, 12" x 16", acrylics on panel. Available (when finished) to the first asking nicely, $579 (includes s&h inside the US). Thank you so much.
For whatever reason, today was a struggle. We all have days where nothing seems to work out, myself included. But now that I've painted this little mouse, and repainted, and painted again, and yet again, so many times that I've lost count, I can see what my issue is.
So I am ending my day with clarity. And some mac and cheese. Both of them being very good things.
If you want something to do, hop on over to my new website and let me know what you think!! I've been picking away at it all week long.

"Eenie, Meenie, Minie, Bow," roughly 18" x 18", acrylics on panel, from the Beribboned series. Available to the first asking nicely, $799 (includes s&h inside the US). Thank you so much.
Special thanks to a super wonderful young lady for sharing pics of her wee one's with me - hope I did them justice Islay!! Thank you also to MR for the best title ever.
Also, SUPER excited because The Princess gets to tame and train a mouse in her zoology class this term. Which means OKeefe (the studio hamster) will have a friend!! So happy!! (it doesn't take much to make me happy these days!)

Petal
"Petal," a Florus Animalum painting, 12" x 16", acrylics on panel, featuring a tender mouse nestled in an abundance of peonies. This piece is available for purchase to the first asking nicely, $599 (includes s&h inside the US). Thank you so much.
A difference in opinion does not mean one person is better or lesser than another. Nor is one right and the other wrong. Today is a struggle for many Americans who are afraid of the future. Be kind. Be gentle. Listen to hear, really hear their voices.
I am seeking understanding of how my country has become so divided. I am scared of what we are doing to each other, not just here in the States, but all over the world.
And in the midst of this turmoil, making art might seem trite. But it is what I do to find my own inner piece. To process events and emotions in a healthy manner. And to give others a small bit of beauty to add to their days.
This mouse in this painting is timid. Mice are timid. But, you see, there is an army of beauty at her back, visualized as peonies. She knows they are there to catch her should she need to retreat.
I define beauty as dignity, grace, moral character, joy and love. I am blessed to have just such an army in my circle.
Thanks for having my back, and, as always, for supporting my art,
Warmly, Kim

I'm thinking about softness with this one. A slightly out of focus, softly lit tendril of a dream.

OKeefe
"OKeefe," a Florus Animalum painting, 16" x 20", acrylics on panel, featuring a baby hamster crowned with peonies in a nod to her namesake Georgia OKeefe. This piece is available for purchase to the first asking nicely, $749 (includes s&h inside the US). Thank you so much!
OKeefe is my new baby. Well, the inspiration behind the painting is my new baby, not the actual painting. Although artists often do refer to their paintings as babies....
Also, life drawing takes on an entirely new meaning when your model is rolling around the studio inside an exercise ball. OKeefe doesn't understand yet how to hold a pose.

Thanks, as always, for supporting my dream,
