After a bit of technology interruption I finally figured out how blogger wants me to format my video clips. This clip is the first in a series of clips that will build the "Twin" painting. The Jungle Book song playing in my head when I was slathering the gesso on the canvas apparently wanted to be known. The things we artist think about during a working session! Thanks for your patience with this blog as I will be posting again on a regular basis.
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.

The Slathering
Since August 8, 2008, 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 with a tomato from my summer garden. I will also be using my “Earth Objects” as inspiration. 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.
