A Pause

©Rebecca Peed

A cloaked woman, done in the style of my Old Man, and oh-so-fun to paint. It's kind of an unconventional way of handling oil paint, to dilute the paint with turpentine and make drippy washes and splashes like you would with watercolor. I love painting this way, though...it's a good way to end what has been a much needed and enjoyed artist hiatus.

The definition of hiatus: a pause or gap in a sequence, series, or process.

This has been a really lovely pause for me.

So, four months and thirty-eight paintings later, I am at another pause, gap, sequence, series, process, whatever you want to call it.

Major transitions and overseas traveling will most likely prevent me from updating this blog regularly (which, by the way, I've come to really enjoy) atleast over the summer but, I'm hoping once my life settles down a little, I'll be back. Until then...
