Revenue stream goals for 2024: (1) The creation of 12 pastel still life’s. Below is one example of my work so far. The plan is to create and pick from the best when 12 or more are completed. (2) other revenue stream goals will be paintings in one or more of the following mediums: oil, watercolor or gouache. It’s been a while as my focus has been on Shibui Found Image Art. A pivot is a good thing as I write about Shibui. I am loving Paul Rembrandt pastels. The colors are amazing.

It’s been since 1994 that I have had fun with the pastels. I began Shibui 2011. A lot happened after that. I have my new home in my cottage studio and just now feel I am underway! A new easel awaits me! Varooooom! Or perhaps its “Let’s move it! Move it! Move it! More like that! I love claiming my Boho cottage studio!

Good Morning Sunshine!

Working on a Shibui Found Image Art.

Finding the story within art.

This is me working a Shibui. It has become a favorite of mine. As I worked my way around it I found all these characters! The image consists of chaotic merging of these characters. The image is focused on the moment where much is happening, a snapshot in time. One I created. I did not plan it, I found it! I simply brought it to life according to what my mind responded to. This process is such fun! The following image is what I found. I can see recreating these characters for a children’s story they are so inspiring!

I think there is a story in all art. The story is about what something is or is about. What we see has familiarity, better yet commonality with others, such as the viewers of our art forms.

I do other forms of art, not just Shibui Found Image Art. You can see both Shibui, pastels and sculpture on my website at Pejj Nunes – Portfolio of Works (anisettestudios.com) Note I am currently updating my site, forgive me for the moment. I am just sorting the business end of things out now. It feels very good to have a working studio again. Not up to snuff but it will be. It is amazing the flaws you find when you return to a Websight. It is comforting to know you’re not alone with the experience. What’s important is sticking with it and keep working it.

My patrons see Shibui as an original art form. Shibui is different in its process. I deeply appreciate all of them!

Best wishes! Pejj Nunes
