#3 The Ferrari Clutch
Underpainting of a Testarossa. 
Underpainting . Oil on canvas
Available on ebay auction NOW. Details here<<
Bidding starts at € 0.99 See all details on the ebay link.
These are both underpaintings that I was never going to finish. But with extreme joy I sewed them into this little clutch. This WILL make a cute Christmas present. Especially if you have a Testarossa. But if you don’t you can wake up and dream on when you apply the lipgloss you pull out of this gorgeous one of a kind, future vintage Brooksby Clutch.
And you could win the auction for ninety-nine cents.
As far as the blue nude goes. I don’t have time to tell you about it now. But it was going to be more than a painting.
#2 – a clutch :: on auction

Getting rejected is part of the creative profession. If you haven’t been rejected you haven’t tried to show your work. After 30 years I still get rejected. What do I do? Move on to the next project.
To celebrate 30 years of professional activity I’m transforming paintings into assembled sculptures, collectable art objects, and wearable art. These are marked with a stitched Scarlet X to differentiate them from my gallery paintings. Available only directly through me.
#2 a clutch

Soon I will tell you the story about the blue nude. It was painted in Maryland on the top of Braddock Heights.

In my last post I mentioned the blue nude and its history. Momentarily I don’t have time to divulge this story because I’ve got rejects. But here is a clue: the person who bought the painting is a man…
To celebrate 30 years of professional activity I’m going to auction off some rejects.

Reject #1 is absolutely useless. But it’s pretty, right? Like an eternal flower. Better than a plastic flower.

AF4-10-18 Pink Cruise
If you follow me on Instagram you’ve seen some of these in the works. Chicken helped me paint some of them.
He loves to land on my paintbrushes when I’m painting. Then he likes to drop onto my palette where all the oil paints are mixed. It’s more like dive bombing.
One day he swiped his tail in cadmium orange. I had to catch him, no easy feat. And clean him with marseilles soap. I was worried he’d die of cadmium poisoning because a large gob was on his tongue from trying to clean his tail. Luckily he didn’t seemed bothered. He is a pest. But so much fun.
Want to see these paintings in person? They are coming soon Carré d’Artistes® gallery in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam Paintings
AF3-1-18 Twilight Twinkle
AF4-8-18 On the Canal
Soon my paintings will be at the Carré d’Artistes® gallery in Amsterdam. These are a sneak peek of the first forty.
It’s a fun challenge to paint a new subject, a new city.
City reflections were my inspiration when I painted the Arno river many years ago, that seems like a different life, when I lived in Florence. Cats have nine lives, I wonder how many lives artists have. Every new subject feels like a new chapter.
I never imagined that I might paint Amsterdam, or exhibit there. It’s a blessing to work with such great people who believe in me and showcase my work in their galleries.
How do you get to show in all theses places? Paint, paint, paint. Be jealous of your time and creative space. Carve your own path through life.
