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! Spring has sprung!

I could not help setting up a still life of tge Daffodils and Tulips. A surprise as this our first spring at our new home. I am loving all the birds which come to my deck. The cow birds have grown in number from 4 to 6. I purchased peanuts for them. So far the titmouse, woodpecker have found these and have happily taken off with their prize.

I have my morning coffee. So glad to have gone organic. Years now.

I am reading a wonderful book for artist, it’s the 7th edition of Composition of Outdoor Painting by Edgar A Payne. An excellent book for remembering technique and more. It’s been a while since I have done art in a mote traditional way. Shibui Found Image Art is very different as you do not do a predrawn understructure.

I have also purchased 4 or five boxed of oil pastels and 2 of chalk plus a set of chalk pastel pencils, along with pressed charcoal, black and white charcoal. Newsprint, pastel papers of different sizes. Sounds like a commitment to me! It feels good and exciting!

I have bought what I need to draw as well. And a new camera.

Best wishes! Pejj

    Every season is such a transformation but spring is Magic! Love seeing the birds come back. Although, I’ve been feeding the Jay’s and crows (and squirrels!) peanuts all winter. Must get some meal worms for the bluebirds they are alreadymoving into the cedar birdhouse near my studio.
