Oozing WIP Update: Round 2

Posted in Art, Stephanie Gerolimatos with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on December 31, 2011 by ssstephg

Here’s a bit of progress on this one. Remember what it looked like before? Well, here it is now. It’s not a big change, but what with the holidays and feeling as if I’d rather hide in a dungeon than open my eyes most days lately, I figure any progress is good.

Hope you’re all enjoying your days more than a sharp stick in the eye and fingers crossed for a positive start to this next year!

Five Minus One Is Still

“Five Minus One Is Still”

Here’s another one from a while back. I worked on this one at the same time as and finished it shortly after the one I posted last week, makes sense, huh?  The color doesn’t translate the best in this photo, so I’m including a few detail photos to help convey a better idea of what it looks like in the flesh.  The plexi that’s placed behind the holes has a very slight greenish cast but it’s much more subtle than it appears in the image of the whole piece.  When I took the overall photo there was a warm light coming in the windows behind the painting.  The light caused the plexiglass to look more intensely greenish-yellow.

Wintertime Art

Byzantine Winter

Ah man, it’s been cold again. We’ve had too much rain and the temps have been down in the fifties! Bleh. So that means crap light, crap mood and not much productivity. In keeping with the cold, the above is a painting a I did during the winter months. It’s similar to the last one I posted in that it incorporates the same basic elements–a highly textured surface, a limited palette and openings in the canvas backed with brightly colored fuzzy fabric. Unlike the last painting, the holes in this one go right through the panel and the fabric is backed with a squishy foam and pressed up tight to the panel so that it bulges out a bit. Kids really dig this one. When it’s hung, the openings are at a perfect height for small hands to reach.
