# A The first Biotic painting 36x18 This is a magical painting for me! I do bad paintings on occasion, and this was one! But no longer. Its canvas is an expensive panel, I was going bankrupt, no way was I tossing it in the dumpster!! Part of my practice has always been to keep hidden a few bad mistakes around the studio. They come in handy when I need something to fight with, play with, or just stretch my imagination, especially when I’m bored! I turned the canvas around and around. I’m looking for a possibility I may have missed. SO…go vertical! I measured and taped a line. Mixing more of the pale yellow I already had on my palette, it’s Playtime! Long story short, I found myself remembering an early childhood fascination with 3-D dioramas of single cell life forms in a drop of pond water. SO, a view from above with its neat rows of crops became something else, and much more interesting to me. It opened a whole new stylistic approach for me to explore! Original is not for Sale' Giclee Prints are coming soon.

Oil on Paper 20 x 16 inches. Again I painted this piece at the Baca Street Studio -Gallery and is an example of the next evolution in this series. I t was started with the intention of a Biotic painting. I first approached it by building layers of patterns and colors. Once that was all dry I came back and "cut-out" the shapes using the burnt orange and pale lavender/pink paint.

This is the very first discovery painting I created from a sad and dusty, failed 'View From Above' painting. I was playing around to see what I might save and use to transform it into something more interesting. It was painted on an expensive cradled panel and I just hate wasting my materials!
This painting is in my personal collection. First discovery paintings are very special and always unique with more than just the final visual.
I might sell offer a limited edition of Giclee prints.

I might sell limited editions. 48 x 36 canvas in oil, Painting over another "problem" attempt of something I can't even visualize now. I did have a great deal of fun with the shapes and colors. Painting the Background was the last thing and keeping the blue sinking deeper and deeper into the dark depths was nearly a week of work! And worth it! This painting sold.

A 16x 12in oil on canvas. An Early evolution of an unsuccessful "View From Above" into in Biotic. With in the shapes of different colors you can find evidence of field, building and roads. Painted it at the Baca Street Studio/Gallery, this sold before I had finished it!
