Getting Down

9″ x 12″ Mixed media collage on paper

“Getting Down” is another abstract collage piece in my Hoodoo series where I’ve cut old paintings into rounded curved squiggly pieces and glued them into another painting. I don’t know about you, but I see creatures dancing, getting down to some groovey tunes!

I finally splurged and ordered some new art supplies!!! When I need basic stuff, I like to order from Blick for delivery since I despise shopping in stores, for anything. I selected a few new acrylic hues to play with, I have been painting with the same shades for over a year, it’s time to switch it up!

If you have a minute, please check out my Fine Art America shop where you can purchase prints and home decor featuring Getting Down, and hundreds of my other designs!

    The ‘figures’ have a Francis Bacon feel.
    As for buying on line – I do a lot myself, but it doesnt work for me when buying pastels particularly. There’s nothing like trying them out first – that way you get what you really want.

    Love that you cut other paintings and glued them on. I’ve never ordered from Blick. Maybe I will try it. There are zero of those stores around here. Love that you ordered something new. I have a craft show in October and I’m *trying* to get myself to get some different paint colors. Ha ha. I love the ocean colors and pink- usually stick with those.

    Yes, Jessica, you should check out the site, they have everything you can imagine, for reasonable prices! I get that most of your treasures are found in thrift stores and estate sales, but you still need the basics too! 😉
