Creating Mandalas seems to help me to relax, and to focus, on the many things that are taking place in my life. I usually create my Mandalas in pen and color pencils. This image is a Mandala I created a while back. I cut two shapes to make my template, can you guess what they might be?I have an affinity to draw, design and Smudge Hearts! Another joy is in adding line art, especially with pencil, to the Smudge Art I create. This piece I scanned into the computer and added lettering. You can do the same. Give it a try!
My all around image for the holidays is and always has been a Peace Dove! World Peace in my lifetime would be a glorious experience. Sending Peace and Love to one and all!If you are interested in receiving the template for creating your very own Peace Dove for the holidays please email me at art@oilpastelsmudge.com ( subject line: Peace for All) and I will send you the pdf to make it happen. Let's spread Peace and Love to the whole world!I have been giving the Oil Pastel Smudge technique a lot of LOVE this year. Sharing it with all types of people, in all types of situations. Having a great time with a Smudge! I just wished to show you a LOVE piece I created recently. It's for the LOVE of a SMUDGE! What a wonderful ride it has been. More to come!
What's this about a "Smudge!" I had a great time sharing about a "Smudge" with the members and friends of the Nevada Artist Association's September meeting. Years ago I was a Board Member of the organization as their Media / Promotion Director, before I had a grasp of the computer and the internet. Times have certainly changed. I picked up a MAC Computer and my art and business started to boom. We had a great time and as always when I am sharing a "Smudge" I always have a group from the audience give it a try. Check out the next post!
This is the 2nd series of "For the LOVE of a Smudge" Show / Exhibit / Sale of Students Work. Much Gratitude to the Nevada Arts Council, Lifetime Arts, the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies and the E.A. Michelson Philanthropy Group for funding this exciting project that has taken me to new heights and understanding of how to go about presenting the technique and concept to the community. See you at the Show! My Students work is Amazing! Come see for yourself what a Smudge can do!
