lost in the sauce – painting something different

July 31, 2014 by StephanieCorfee

Sometimes being an artist is deadlines and measurements, and technical files and clerical work. Sometimes it is execution of orders and commissioned paintings with specific parameters and color schemes. It’s ok. Every job has boring-but-necessary parts, enjoyable parts…and then stinkin AWESOME parts. i got to make a painting (above- Sparkling Water) purely for my own self expression recently and it was pretty stinkin awesome.

i let myself evolve a little, without being afraid that i’d lose my audience. Because we all evolve. It’s fun. i love change. But when you build your brand on a certain look, a bit of fear creeps in that you need to stay the course and give the people what they want. That doesn’t leave a lot of room for evolution.

But i posted the new art on facebook, as i am apt to do….and people didn’t UNLIKE me. Whaddya know? Lots of folks really liked this it even though it is something new and different. Phew.

i’ve been feeling a real bug to explore muted color and transparent color and mixing of watercolors and acrylics a lot lately. i’ve also been messing with portraits like you wouldn’t believe. (i will share soon!)

It’s wonderful to be able to trust yourself enough to change and experiment. i am going for it full-tilt now that the band-aid has been ripped off.

completed works – imagination

Imagination-sm

Here is a new piece i’ve been playing with. I’ve had a lot of interest doing drawings by hand and then coloring, texturizing and embellishing them in photoshop. This one is my idea of of how my imagination-land looks in my noggin….full, saturated color and crazy pattern. It’s like my imagination is exploding all around me and i just skip my way through it plucking this bit of inspiration here and that bit of color there. Prints available in my etsy shop. Cheers!

dashes – water + color

April 7, 2010 by StephanieCorfee

Water+ColorFor Easter, my 4 year old son got a new set of watercolors. What’s better than that? They look like candy. He’s been having lots of fun splashing and swooshing. This quickie artwork calls to mind the word-for-the-day around here : )
