first painting of 09

during one art-night awhile back, my friend jan (john) was looking through my sketch book picking out the pages he liked best.  among a couple others he chose this as one of the drawings he liked:

he said it reminded him of joan miro. i suppose i can see the connection.  although that wasn’t the motivation behind the drawing, i do love joan miro.  anyway, he told me that i should make a painting of it. at which point i decided that i would paint it and give it to him as a surprise.

well, it took a couple months to get around to it. mainly because of the circumstances i spoke of in my previous post. i did, however, complete it:

12″ X 9″, spray paint and paint marker on galvanized steel.

it’s a simple painting with a simple porcess. but it was fun:

and i love the look of galvanized steel:
