I have been inspired by the painting a day phenomenon that is happening in the blogsphere. This truly is an art movement. I started my first daily painting on Thursday, August 8. I used a tomato from my summer garden and hope to use some for upcoming images. I will also be using my “Earth Objects” as inspiration. My daughter, Giovanna, is working along side me in the studio. She is painting the same images, which is interesting. In August she is off to Venice to paint for a semester. Its good to have company in the studio. Today we primed our canvas to prepare for tomorrows first paintings. This should be an interesting ride.
My plan is to post a painting a day at least five days a week. Please feel free to "feed your burn" and tell other art lovers about this blog site.

im-age ar´chae-ol´o-gy™, [im-ij] [ahr-kee-ol-uh-jee], n. 1. The systematic recovery by artistic methods of imagery within the ground of a painting. 2. A dig into the surface ground with the butt of a paintbrush to imprint an image. 3. The space between the figure and the ground from which emerges a skeletal impression of an image. 4. A constant searching for the middle ground through the application of paint and projected thought that culminated into a work of art.
