My Red Poppy Painting, and my first blog post!

Hi family, friends, parents, and students! I am very excited to start my first ever blog! I am excited to share my artwork, the reasons why I paint certain objects, subjects, or scenes, and share my passion for art. I would also love to hear comments about what you think about my artwork. To my students who I miss dearly, I would love to see photos of your art, and maybe you want to try to draw or paint one of my paintings, go ahead and try it! Since being stuck at home these last few weeks I decided to paint one of my "baba" Ukrainian grandmother's pillows. You can see her pillow on the right, and I ended up making a 24x36 inch canvas of her pillow, but in my own style. My baba would make pillows often, whenever I was visiting her she would be sitting on her couch making the pillows out of thin colored string. I loved the bright colors so much in her pillow that I had to paint it. In a few days I am going to post a time lapse video of this painting, stay tuned! Have a fabulous and healthy week!
