Little did I know how things would change by April when we finally embarked. My world was turned completely around. I am basically not a political person, one of those that take for granted that I live in a democratic country with developed civil rights.</p><p> Jerry requested we start a few works and think about them as a series with specific intentions in mind. I had started a few pieces where I want'd to explore the colors of the area of the Dead Sea, specifically salt sea and sand. At one point I couldn't continue, blocked completely. Switched gears and started a new series, my feelings about what was happening around me. Two weeks before leaving, I started some new starts . See <a href="https://caroled-artstuff.blogspot.com/2023/03/back-in-studio.html">Back in the Studio</a>. So off I went with the 3 starts and lots of hopes. </p><p>Not only did I choose a very political content, I chose a specific color palette that also is way out of my custom neutral and muted palette. My more formal intentions were to use neutrals with high saturated primary colors of RED, BLUE, and YELLOW. Think I really took on more than I could handle. Finally, narrowed content to two words: UNCERTAINTY and DETERMINATION. Still a very abstract ! </p><p>I am not sure if I expressed these ideas, or how all these worked out,or if I finished them. I did learn a lot about myself, sticking to an idea, adjusting goals, the importance of intentions.</p><p>First three are the continuation of the starts I brought. Don't know which came from which start, doesn't really matter.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIVbUf6rEMeDThuRX-ctp9ZxUMokaueujLTViqQC9bbnhUuzrDcRApPQNiE4nh8isx4WY3W_W1A9h0CBdjJdX1ebUI82tR8JoHloLoEuMvPXWm0dsKB9LliOmhO3UNI1AhEaoQCAC1xbIaqdVfStF38Db6hFZTPHA7OSo2GEtgI3NsvTUSyErGPrRh/s1203/protest_14x14_5319.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1203" height="399" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIVbUf6rEMeDThuRX-ctp9ZxUMokaueujLTViqQC9bbnhUuzrDcRApPQNiE4nh8isx4WY3W_W1A9h0CBdjJdX1ebUI82tR8JoHloLoEuMvPXWm0dsKB9LliOmhO3UNI1AhEaoQCAC1xbIaqdVfStF38Db6hFZTPHA7OSo2GEtgI3NsvTUSyErGPrRh/w400-h399/protest_14x14_5319.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">14x14" </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oils and Cold Wax on paper</div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh06QsqAuo5UUvNroiyz6bBXV1P_la95R5ej1xMq0mWJgga0dSCG5IuASRzxrIETS1gux9brlSSMUCh0ovlF2J5L3wxyaLGBwnZjjpRk9knlEQR44c7sq8nelKQBdNcKbhU0seJd5EI7jlsmvIQFHFMqFQkmfCZOf_4FJBuigttKam_hQfRiap_GQu/s1204/protest_14x14_5350.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1204" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh06QsqAuo5UUvNroiyz6bBXV1P_la95R5ej1xMq0mWJgga0dSCG5IuASRzxrIETS1gux9brlSSMUCh0ovlF2J5L3wxyaLGBwnZjjpRk9knlEQR44c7sq8nelKQBdNcKbhU0seJd5EI7jlsmvIQFHFMqFQkmfCZOf_4FJBuigttKam_hQfRiap_GQu/w399-h400/protest_14x14_5350.jpg" width="399" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">14x14" </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Oils and Cold Wax on paper</div></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0kZ9Cm38hZHBsa7bI0UtrijgGUsOI8TuZKTlnS_xxMjFfjc2AZEGbLMhqGh5eQFWQur5YZPHMl4NkBJFZfRohzebH1lIdEXT5HiTp9GO1TtrZINumk-bLi_Vf4IqwJ0MYwJIE_Xrkk95p6pDgOWmRKRsyBa7ewU52I0FyrjkMMV6jnZ-N4EQDaIGk/s1223/protest_5425.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1223" height="393" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0kZ9Cm38hZHBsa7bI0UtrijgGUsOI8TuZKTlnS_xxMjFfjc2AZEGbLMhqGh5eQFWQur5YZPHMl4NkBJFZfRohzebH1lIdEXT5HiTp9GO1TtrZINumk-bLi_Vf4IqwJ0MYwJIE_Xrkk95p6pDgOWmRKRsyBa7ewU52I0FyrjkMMV6jnZ-N4EQDaIGk/w400-h393/protest_5425.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">14x14" </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Oils and Cold Wax on paper</div></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><p></p><p><br /></p>carol edanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15613981984625593843noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009516700734744055.post-80885931258568250262023-04-27T19:03:00.002+03:002023-04-27T19:05:13.407+03:00The Old Fashioned Way<p> Sometimes the old fashioned way is the best way. After many hours, too many, trying various platforms for my blog and hosting options I decided to host through my Gmail creating a group list.

I really have to think how I divide my energy. So blogging is not the highest priority.</p><p>In about 2 weeks, I am off to Ireland, Ballycastle County Mayo to be more specific. First ever one-on-one workshop with <a href="http://www.ballinglenworkshops.com/jerry-mclaughlin.html" target="_blank">Jerry McLaughin</a>, master of oils and cold wax!</p><p>These past months have been very difficult, haven't really been able to focus much. I decided my series will be about my feelings of the demonstrations, loss of control, tension, uncertainty. It will mainly build my palette of saturated colors, neutrals, organic shapes and maybe some symbolism.

Just been on my mind lately!</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #231f20; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Also been thinking about real estate. Not the kind you buy, but the space you create on. Your substrate size. I would call myself a medium size painter. 5"x7" would probably be the smallest I would go. If I want smaller, say for cards, I have my trusty cutter. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #231f20; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Last fall did an exercise on a full sheet of paper, roughly 27"x39" of a repetitive pattern with various pencils, graphite, charcoal, crayons, etc on newsprint. I chose the circle as my motif, loosely! Had it on my wall, mainly for inspiration, loved various sections. Masking tape isn't a good adhesive, and it kept falling off. Didn't want to chop it off, but I needed smaller real estate.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #231f20; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Then I viewed Helen Wells' video on one page <a href="https://youtu.be/U5Qp_T48EnI" target="_blank">sketchbook</a>! </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #231f20; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Voila! 8 pages of smaller real estate, around 6.5"x10", that I can experiment with, fold in squares up, etc. In the photos you can see extra creases.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #231f20;

Brought me back to my small world and into my studio. Worked with some starts that have been waiting for some time for my attention. Did an exercise recently for the Cold Wax Academy and one thing that I learned was one of the ways that I paint is very intuitive and sometimes aggressive and even destructive. In this painting I started with some collage pieces, which would give me a compositional start. Not quite complete, I may add some wax crayon marking. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFk-20BJFrrNLQZGBreGSiSBFmDGnlgpwQLfRqK2pKnWkxx0wEa7bF5EqaMkcKvsTpEmRtxH9WrPhd1PegTsRDftvYnclGN-yHps0iaGWSmhjC3plrazbRi9rdarA8DJWn-v2kj4XKLJyPvdAaBr60MwIzXZf4I0vh1jfgvf0jiEfKG4xw80CsFPvY/s1604/collage_3_4030.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1604" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFk-20BJFrrNLQZGBreGSiSBFmDGnlgpwQLfRqK2pKnWkxx0wEa7bF5EqaMkcKvsTpEmRtxH9WrPhd1PegTsRDftvYnclGN-yHps0iaGWSmhjC3plrazbRi9rdarA8DJWn-v2kj4XKLJyPvdAaBr60MwIzXZf4I0vh1jfgvf0jiEfKG4xw80CsFPvY/w640-h478/collage_3_4030.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">WIP</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">20 x14.3"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Collage Oils and Cold Wax on paper</div><p></p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGkQ15YXg2St8PbVDN_dPbJIzTib_Z60IhiP7sJqF7uxw8sg3ts22wA6sccHQp0si6FVT7UzBZpr74xNi1cDAg8TrgLR-JCBjrnLYsq2KFGDkxO1KESEsDLHoJZ__VP50ACSaKocCFM_O2wmQkfTcfNKVVyH9fpK9eGMTr62PitRhOMklZ68bSyorD/s1657/collage_2_0442.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1657" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGkQ15YXg2St8PbVDN_dPbJIzTib_Z60IhiP7sJqF7uxw8sg3ts22wA6sccHQp0si6FVT7UzBZpr74xNi1cDAg8TrgLR-JCBjrnLYsq2KFGDkxO1KESEsDLHoJZ__VP50ACSaKocCFM_O2wmQkfTcfNKVVyH9fpK9eGMTr62PitRhOMklZ68bSyorD/w400-h290/collage_2_0442.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Layer 2</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYvQdOcsEw0yt5HKfBvshltB-ouGVfYBVeARzwJD_InkODEudRL5LwO4f5RbX_rki4meo7bo1pJBwsM538ZoQ9yIS0iyEZRUyoiPsEbItMCOlEznoWX3soCFfAHQtTQTIRi2ty-Fu2PTM6ho3NZmvSTT8dDv7SymR-AQHZocOWmOh40brxjJ2xFvm-/s1647/collage_1_0840.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1647" height="291" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYvQdOcsEw0yt5HKfBvshltB-ouGVfYBVeARzwJD_InkODEudRL5LwO4f5RbX_rki4meo7bo1pJBwsM538ZoQ9yIS0iyEZRUyoiPsEbItMCOlEznoWX3soCFfAHQtTQTIRi2ty-Fu2PTM6ho3NZmvSTT8dDv7SymR-AQHZocOWmOh40brxjJ2xFvm-/w400-h291/collage_1_0840.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Layer 1</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDBZVKJdVXWxpUpcGnObkr0WKrAweF6J27G_3ael_TXtK2Pmqw8uj_xS0zpXRef9zZM2eevuAqHrG0V-s1N_So3YODuMP6CvscCINIzBsoJM8Bu7MBYs_FtENxUyYpExkV4zpHJMytSxFRk2KUVg6VKLXDPXQ5MZbBl4KUEC4fpQOo2yx1aiPd3qAx/s1673/colllage_1206.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1673" height="288" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDBZVKJdVXWxpUpcGnObkr0WKrAweF6J27G_3ael_TXtK2Pmqw8uj_xS0zpXRef9zZM2eevuAqHrG0V-s1N_So3YODuMP6CvscCINIzBsoJM8Bu7MBYs_FtENxUyYpExkV4zpHJMytSxFRk2KUVg6VKLXDPXQ5MZbBl4KUEC4fpQOo2yx1aiPd3qAx/w400-h288/colllage_1206.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Collage over staining with some</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">mark-making</div><br /><p></p>carol edanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15613981984625593843noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009516700734744055.post-82337139355817969532022-04-28T12:10:00.000+03:002022-04-28T12:10:42.196+03:00Zantangle to Neurographica<p> Each spring <a href="https://www.karenabend.com/" target="_blank">Karen Abend</a> gives a free an online event called <a href="https://www.karenabend.com/sketchbook-revival-2022/" target="_blank">Sketchbook Revival</a>. Two weeks of artists giving various lessons to help us create each day in our sketchbooks. I usually pick which artist I want to view. This year, a lesson on Zentangle caught my eye. They have a special FB page, so a chance post on zentangles led me to Neurographica. Both are great for small projects and limited and easy supplies, mainly pens, markers, colored pencils, crayons. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8-kMaVhpG0ic1NPPIOdBz9RdwCItxEjPbK3g8q2L60J3KhEwJ1jDY2_iRjaYhZWN_DVUlbbcBEqWNT3Qh4KCXNBslhXkIqqs58rN1uBHtLm7b5y7ObPN6cQZ6EJOkzEDzwoe0JlgXl8Q8v6J0Bla_mFGgNFu5a8q1RG_lvwszCj5WWKrRhQ7U19R1/s1200/zentangle_0740.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8-kMaVhpG0ic1NPPIOdBz9RdwCItxEjPbK3g8q2L60J3KhEwJ1jDY2_iRjaYhZWN_DVUlbbcBEqWNT3Qh4KCXNBslhXkIqqs58rN1uBHtLm7b5y7ObPN6cQZ6EJOkzEDzwoe0JlgXl8Q8v6J0Bla_mFGgNFu5a8q1RG_lvwszCj5WWKrRhQ7U19R1/w400-h400/zentangle_0740.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Joy</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Pen and graphite</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">6.5x6.5"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Sketchbook</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>The artist instructor was <a href="https://www.melindabarlowczt.com/" target="_blank">Melinda Barlow</a>.

Class trip to Eilat. Two boys infected. The entire class had to be tested, fast test and longer, more precise test. Friday supper cancelled, caught us as we were about to leave. The new normal, nothing is normal. Just ranting, nothing to do with Morocco!</p><p>The Cold Wax Academy gave us a homework project,paint 3 to 5 small paintings as a series. I chose Memories of Morocco as my subject/content. 2015 I took a trip to Morocco with my daughter. She was a yoga instructor for the trip. This trip had lasting memories and a pair of stencils that reminded me of the patterns pushed me to this choice.. So my focused intentions were the memories of place,Morocco, limited color palette, use of stencils and masks.</p><p>Palette: Burnt Sienna, Ultramarine Blue, Indian Yellow White,Paynes Gray(my black) and Buff Titanium.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Stay well!</p><p>Have really been absent on this blog but have been putting time in my studio creating and doing other creative activities, online lessons, Cold Wax Academy which is a year extensive program and will continue year two. This program, although the emphasis is on ColdWax techniques, has a lot for every artist. I often listen and watch videos from past session concerning every aspect of art. Both Jerry and Rebecca are very thorough in their presentations. Once a month, they share their lessons with the wider community. So if you belong <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/cwacommunity/" target="_blank">Cold Wax Community </a>on FB you can join in. </p><p>I am presently doing a series(5) for critique, if it is chosen, based broadly on memories of my trip to Morocco. Still struggling!</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj0GLiQ1HMbotZNWwjSmp2Sn2u5jc1dLVkJyf7cf5fZs9EW_o6vwKe1Ufc3Efj3nzx83OcoieRuNrTZgLepg4CTQSfwr66-JhFJ2PB_iMTnjl2zgicvdkfAH-bi6q7ZML0PDgIsdPAXfH_4yaiLVYyCFULjRWxCwq5nV1Hp8VsutNv8_b5roAkHYmpA=s1887" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1887" data-original-width="1500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj0GLiQ1HMbotZNWwjSmp2Sn2u5jc1dLVkJyf7cf5fZs9EW_o6vwKe1Ufc3Efj3nzx83OcoieRuNrTZgLepg4CTQSfwr66-JhFJ2PB_iMTnjl2zgicvdkfAH-bi6q7ZML0PDgIsdPAXfH_4yaiLVYyCFULjRWxCwq5nV1Hp8VsutNv8_b5roAkHYmpA=s320" width="254" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">WIP Morocco Memories</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">14"x16"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oils and Cold Wax on Paper</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj3gmcH2JQXBJfFgOiiyNWvIpg3X7WVj07lrxZT8WjPXjsCLRUCeLOxtdTwS0kuI9BBjipsvaSGkjQXd8d1piJTMB-1wVRMahuMmmC5W08mOH8K9IwHbCnq6RI4_v10Ns5D_IPikv_Yg0l3_WIIw3TYF9gBAP1fIxydnqQCk4ZT_vHbE_pVWBVCPcUt=s1561" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1561" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj3gmcH2JQXBJfFgOiiyNWvIpg3X7WVj07lrxZT8WjPXjsCLRUCeLOxtdTwS0kuI9BBjipsvaSGkjQXd8d1piJTMB-1wVRMahuMmmC5W08mOH8K9IwHbCnq6RI4_v10Ns5D_IPikv_Yg0l3_WIIw3TYF9gBAP1fIxydnqQCk4ZT_vHbE_pVWBVCPcUt=s320" width="246" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Clown</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">10.5"x14"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Charcoal on Paper</div><br /><p></p><p><br /></p>carol edanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15613981984625593843noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009516700734744055.post-46681152567675394962021-10-17T19:43:00.000+03:002021-10-17T19:43:54.442+03:00Bye Bye Workshop<p> I really don't know how long I have been going to this workshop, I think for at least 10-12 years. A long time! Now it seems that it just fell apart. My first instructor was Heleni. She had to leave for personal reasons and then came Reuven T. First year went fine, although there were a few drop outs. Second season not so well, third with the pandemic was a disaster. Last part of the year when we did resume, Ariel saved us because Reuven T didn't find it feasible for so few students. Ariel couldn't continue this year, so our "director" found us a new instructor, <a href="https://www.bizmakebiz.co.il/Members/de40ff7f-94b4-4ebb-8614-04efa98696f1/Portfolio/">Eitan Fried </a> Long story short, did not work out for me, told me outright that he wouldn't be able to help me with critique or direction. Others also felt the same. Group sort of dispersed till we can re-organize hopefully.</p><p>Had a few hard days digesting it all but I am sure we will find someone, or I may look for a private mentor.</p><p>I commissioned myself to do 2 paintings for my kitchen. I want to some combine still life and abstract. I listened to a zoom presentation by <a href="http://www.edmondpraybe.com/" target="_blank">Edmond Praybe</a> on Still Life: More than Nature Morte, at Winslow Art Center, which was the inspiration.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxPb9ZMHAnwwZrlhs-0_tBJOIQ48DajluFYR1b4yW7C58ae2BbDebhAlwv07167C86oiU9vVPDqYcnthhsSl1Z0oYcP_lHb1nbbn0z49hJnoGoJ2YP54hHrjUpFnkvwj33j6eAp3oY-HQ/s2427/kitchen-1-0552.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="2427" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxPb9ZMHAnwwZrlhs-0_tBJOIQ48DajluFYR1b4yW7C58ae2BbDebhAlwv07167C86oiU9vVPDqYcnthhsSl1Z0oYcP_lHb1nbbn0z49hJnoGoJ2YP54hHrjUpFnkvwj33j6eAp3oY-HQ/w640-h316/kitchen-1-0552.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Kitchen WIP</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">28" x 14"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oils and CWM</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">on organic paper</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioxS9-xntBFb83PJEu1Xaw0RBXDHhJy3vlw_w-hNPu7h7JsxfY-fhlujKIJdMMmqKLlABJKpfyajn0qB1YQpTBf4kqRxnr_XsrCNuFt9oL9n7aGjhge6SK3XrBgy8DpsSaV163XN4So8c/s2048/kitchen-2-0603.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1034" data-original-width="2048" height="324" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioxS9-xntBFb83PJEu1Xaw0RBXDHhJy3vlw_w-hNPu7h7JsxfY-fhlujKIJdMMmqKLlABJKpfyajn0qB1YQpTBf4kqRxnr_XsrCNuFt9oL9n7aGjhge6SK3XrBgy8DpsSaV163XN4So8c/w640-h324/kitchen-2-0603.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Kitchen WIP</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">28" x 14"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Oils and CWM</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">on organic paper</div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvBPKwUZzA03F2XiCu7UHF_Gf61DpnDo5BsXFfZRKfIqGY9C8o2BZ7uHJ3_KaKK7MneCSnVl04Glc-QePmB0XpK_wP3wPnwEgY9WqMg7Hg01syMDPTj3cZtRFRFlthfpGH_jRpG_SpeUA/s1201/skippingwater-4707.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1201" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvBPKwUZzA03F2XiCu7UHF_Gf61DpnDo5BsXFfZRKfIqGY9C8o2BZ7uHJ3_KaKK7MneCSnVl04Glc-QePmB0XpK_wP3wPnwEgY9WqMg7Hg01syMDPTj3cZtRFRFlthfpGH_jRpG_SpeUA/w640-h640/skippingwater-4707.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">WIP</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">14" x 14"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oils and CWM</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">on organic paper</div><br /><p><br /></p><h3 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #707070; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0.5rem;"><br /></h3><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>carol edanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15613981984625593843noreply@blogger.com0Neve Monosson, Yehud-Monosson, Israel32.030357 34.8725323.7201231638211567 -0.28371800000000036 60.340590836178848 70.028782tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009516700734744055.post-80613743118334334752021-10-06T10:58:00.000+03:002021-10-06T10:58:05.192+03:00News From My Studio Happy New Year<p> Happy New Year! Wishing you all a healthy and creative new year! I actually love that the fall is the beginning, harvests are over, time for inner reflections for our new personal harvests.</p><p>With the holidays over, slight temperature changes, weekly workshops have been renewed. All these have seemed to put new wind in my creative life.</p><p>The holidays were really dragging on for the entire month of September. Wonderful family gatherings, good food (too much) but juggling shopping, preparations, and Shabbats in between took so much time from the studio. </p><p>Although Covid is still with us and will be for sometime, somehow we have learned how to live with it and take precautions, masking and social distancing. Most I meet have the green pass, third shot behind them. Do shopping early when there are fewer people. Even went to a play with daughter and family.</p><p>Our weekly workshops have begun, a new instructor, <a href="https://www.bizmakebiz.co.il/Members/de40ff7f-94b4-4ebb-8614-04efa98696f1/Portfolio/" target="_blank">Eitan Fried</a>, who in grounded in academia. I hope I will find my place. It was so good to get our of the house and meet my artist friends.</p><p>Been working during the summer, took a course with Melinda Cootsona. An excellent teacher and great material.

Not each layer covers the whole substrate, just another color application or reduction. Subdued the word, TATU took out some marks and in the end subdued the conflict between the words and black marks on the right-hand side. Killed a section from the under collage that I really liked so that the rest would work together. Giving it a new name and putting it aside. For now finished, but maybe later may still edit.

She showed a technique that really caught my attention. She works with collage in a novel concept. Not adding collage to a painting in progress but starting with a substrate where collage pieces were glued and using paint in a reductive way. Cool. After doing one, I started 3 more and decided that this will become a series. </p><p>Collage</p><p>Cold Wax layers, oil sticks, </p><p>Mark Making</p><p>My new Favani organic paper various colors 350gm</p><p>Squeegee, brayer, palette-knife +</p><p>Limited Palette</p><p><br /></p><p>TATU</p><p>Mainly art papers I made with acrylic with my Gelli Pad. Some on transparent papers and some using newspaper as a substrate. Made a coat of gloss media between the collage pieces before mark-making and added oils with cold wax. This allows me to go back to the first collage layer. </p><p>The word TATU was part of another word that came from a huge newspaper I got from an exhibition at the Tel Aviv Museum about Jerusalem <a href="https://www.tamuseum.org.il/en/about-the-exhibition/in-statu-quo-structures-of-negotiation/" target="_blank">Called Status Quo</a>. It has no real meaning on its own, just a mark or shape.

Sometimes wet the paper and put ink marks. One can use watercolor pencils, water-soluble graphite and other mark making tools. Using watercolor washes over the ink, also intuitively. Going back with pen and editing with more opaque gouache. Stan does this complete process in one sitting, as his demonstration, but I like to work doing a few ink starts. Next day adding watercolor, and then another time to the editing process, which is the most difficult. As soon as my thinking process kicks in, I am in big trouble.</span></span></div></div><br /><p><br /></p>carol edanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15613981984625593843noreply@blogger.com0Neve Monosson, Yehud-Monosson, Israel32.030357 34.8725323.7201231638211567 -0.28371800000000036 60.340590836178848 70.028782tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009516700734744055.post-3869677060731613022020-12-02T16:31:00.000+02:002020-12-02T16:31:22.976+02:00Study in Orange<p>Purposely left a small piece of cut canvas taped to a kappa-board on my worktable.

One such lesson is, don't take things for granted. Before the pandemic, I would make weekly visits to my daughter and grand-sons. It's a fairly simple drive, half an hour on the major highway to Jerusalem. I took these outings for granted. Tuesday morning was art workshop day, Wednesday visit Yael. When they were much younger my weekly visits were helpful because that was the day Yael had evening classes to teach and I had to make supper, see that they took their bathes, and read before bedtime. It was a sleepover when they were still living in Aminadav, outside of Jerusalem. Since their move to Neve Shalom two years ago, the visits are easier, I can drive, and Yael usually is at home, so we enjoy a coffee together while catching up. The kids don't "need my help" but my presence is important to them. </p><p>This changed with Covid, lockdowns and visiting restrictions.</p><p>So when I can make a visit WOW what a treat! Noam wasn't at home because his school allows him to take part in their boarding school, two weeks at school, two weeks at home, but I had an enjoyable visit with Uri, 11, and Yael. Maybe next week Uri will start school. It was good to get out of the house in the fresh air! </p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh045MCmp7pn1289H3w3hKLFFYKe-1yUdTwz9sPa1jOts5f-p795P0h2CyRO4DS9raKn5fkovxLoxYUGKyxfZEQFfMEqQa0ruzR-F914qk8JLdsXjIYqB1V659Mr9-Vp83oY014znOWBw8/s1600/deckview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh045MCmp7pn1289H3w3hKLFFYKe-1yUdTwz9sPa1jOts5f-p795P0h2CyRO4DS9raKn5fkovxLoxYUGKyxfZEQFfMEqQa0ruzR-F914qk8JLdsXjIYqB1V659Mr9-Vp83oY014znOWBw8/w300-h400/deckview.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">View from the deck</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">They built the house around the tree!</div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrtjH506Y5UuH4W58NHiOASkeDGHLt1K6_Jj1i2Qy2_ERJOQ7c__y4NDrFr1_F31lJUBFHdNlngz8eisy1XjUNz20dkgFTpRlCGCTDVHreqRm3MmqMfpROWKGMyQJKGR3cztS1b5j_XOM/s1600/Class-zoom.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrtjH506Y5UuH4W58NHiOASkeDGHLt1K6_Jj1i2Qy2_ERJOQ7c__y4NDrFr1_F31lJUBFHdNlngz8eisy1XjUNz20dkgFTpRlCGCTDVHreqRm3MmqMfpROWKGMyQJKGR3cztS1b5j_XOM/w400-h300/Class-zoom.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Zoom homeschooling<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p></p><p>Caught Uri in the middle of his class, later went out on the deck to paint.
