Price...less Show Piece



Just finished a painting for another group show at The Hive on December 4th. I wanted to re-do a painting I did during the summer, which was my first on hot-press watercolor paper. I have to admit, it's n0t my best painting (small one on the right), but the re-vision is a big improvement.


Cautious Optimism
8" x 10"
Ink/Watercolor
The concept I had was pretty loose, but as I was re-drawing it I came up with something. When something good come one's way, that person is happy, but still have fears that the good thing may slip away, thus they are cautiously optimistic. The two people are about to embrace but they have their hands up as if they want the embrace to happen but are still reluctant. I have yet to update my blog with more exciting stuff that has happened and I apologize, my work has just been catching up with me.

Nice painting + interesting story!

It takes a lot of motivation and time to redo a piece, but always worth it!
