I was once again honored to be invited to do a photo shoot for Barbara Schuessler, aka "La Flamencista". She will be performing in October at the 2nd Annual Mediterranean Nights event in Tucson. She needed a photo for an upcoming ad in Shimmy Magazine.

Thank you, Barbara, it was a blast! The photo to the left was chosen for the ad. Unfortunately, it was cropped quite a bit to fit in.

Phone to Canvas Painting Two Phase Two

This painting looks scary at this point. The phone version had yellow sharp-edged shapes behind the painting. I painted a piece of paper and then cut it out into the shapes that I see in yellow on the phone version.

I had painted a foundational painting first so I could see where to place my yellow painted paper pieces. Now, I will paint over it, blending it to look similar to the original phone art.

Do you think I can pull it back together?
