Back in early 2007 I went to an exhibition at the Frye gallery in Seattle of work from the New Leipzig School (Life After Death: New Leipzig Paintings from the Rubell Family Collection). The stark and architectural nature of the work has always stayed with me and I decided to interpret this in a painting recently.
I'm not sure I love the results, but it was great to pick up a paintbrush again.
It's acrylic with some embroidered faceted things up in the corner, because what's blog art these days without facets?!
Some process pics.
My favorite artist from the exhibit is David Schnell, the dreamy perspectival quality just draws you in.
In short, I've got a long way to go before I do any paintings that I'm super proud of, but one always has to start somewhere.

I do like the color base though.
