Wild and Crazy Acrylic Painting by Texas Artist M.Allison


Way long time ago, my sister Karen and I painted murals
and wall finishes and as of late, we were asked to paint
a canvas for a new restaurant in Houston - MODERNO.
We had such fun doing it!  Painted in my art studio, hence
the crazy walls in the background.

I love to do paintings with leftover paint, although I still have to 
add new paint. Just went a little crazy on this one and it was
so much fun!  Graphite makes great shadows and great 
scribbles and there you have it!

I love the water and love to paint the water.  I would like this
to be me sitting there, a beautiful town in the distance and the wind
slightly blowing, contemplating all the world's peace and confusion.

This really leaves a lot to the imagination, even to mine.
I can create a million (maybe a little less) places where
this could be and I like the mystery of that. I think this
may be a take-off of my Abstract Landscape series - a
little more muted and undefined.

Abstract Landscape Painting in Oil and Graphite by Texas Artist M.Allison

I was asked to do a demonstration at the Brenham Art League
in Texas and was given an hour to paint and instruct.  Wow - that's
not much time!  I did tweek this somewhat when I got back to the
studio, but basically this was it.  The reason I really like this is because
it gives the impression of many different things.  Some see cows, 
some see trees, but more than a few see pianos, hence the title.  I tell
you what - it was really fun to do and the people there were great.
I'm going to do a workshop there on August 21st.  Get your seats now!
