Today's painting represents my brief break from college course prep. I worked - nonstop - from noon until 5 PM on finalizing the syllabus and organizing readings into folders for the college course I will be teaching at TCNJ starting one week from today. Funny things happen to your body when you sit at a "desk" for that long and type... Anyway, I allowed myself a "break" from work to paint kachina. Today I have placed him inside the paint box. The inside of the box is metal so I once again have a reflective surface to deal with. I simplified the labels on the tubes of paint - I will remind you that this is an exercise in composition, not an exercise in details or specifics. My brain is completely fried at this moment and I will leave you to decide if this is a good or not so good composition. Please comment - your thoughts are welcome and encouraged.

Impressive composition but equally impressed with how you capture each of these in a relatively short period of time. Each is as if the kachina darts from place to place and you catch him in the act from moment

Lora Marie DurrDuring my undergraduate studies, I spent a great deal of time in the painting studio working with traditional oils. Teaching middle school art for the past 12 years has taken me away from those roots. This "one a day" project is aimed at re-inspiring that creativity and technique. Archives
