The 4" x 4" wood panel is my favorite size to work on. The small surface area is not at all intimidating, and I can casually work on the painting over the course of a few days. Anything larger than 8" x 10", and I'm toiling over every little mark and decision.
One of my goals for this year is to work on larger pieces, but I don't intend on moving away from the smaller compositions any time soon. I enjoy creating original pieces of art that are easily accessible and affordable. Whenever I sell one of my works, it's so rewarding to know that someone's personal art collection has just increased by one.

ReplyDeletelady lady...this is precious. love the soft edges. nicely done. :)
ReplyDeletethanks ladies : )
ReplyDeleteloving these pieces. totally know what you mean re working small. i too feel more free with small and paper, though often enough some of the things i'm trying really need more space. it's a definite shift.
ReplyDeletelooking forward to seeing some bigger pieces.
