3 Days to Go – VAVA Works In Progress

There are only 3 days left to this trimester.  The other five students are returning to the Vienna Academy of Visionary Art full time next trimester; nevertheless, everyone is working hard to move their projects forward.  It will be really nice to have our work on display at the Equinox Party & Exhibition on Friday night, some works in progress and some for sale.  May those find good homes!

As for me, I will probably put the finishing coat on all my oil paintings tomorrow.  It won’t be traditional varnish as this can only be done 6 months after they’re finished, but I’m told it’s not necessary.  Name suggestions are still coming in for my main piece – so many to choose from – I’ll make my decision by Thursday, when I finalize the tags.  Quite a few ring true for me.  As for “Co-Creative Bliss”, I added series of little white highlight dots in the eye and on the spirals. It’s vibrating even more now.  I love the energy of this painting (not just the one represented visually) – but it puts my iPhone in a tizzy – very hard to photograph!

I’ll have more to show of everyone’s work later as I’m bringing in my good camera and tripod tomorrow for students who want me to photograph their pieces.  I’ve also been working on name tags for all the paintings we’ll have on display.  I’m used to this kind of work, plus I don’t want to start any new projects, especially since I’ve been packing up my gear for Bali.  It always feels good to de-clutter and organize.  I’ve even put a pile of drawings and projects together to offer to party-goers at a “Pay What You Can” price – I don’t want to ship everything back to Canada to sit on a shelf and the funds will help with my upcoming art workshop travels.  No expectations – I’m simply open to the possibilities. By the way, none of my paintings on canvas or panel are part of that deal… sorry.
