This is a new work titled "The Four Directions," part of the traffic series I've been working on. I like the formal elements of this composition as well as the idea behind it, that we subconsciously pay homage to the Four Directions whenever we drive a city that is laid out on a grid.
The bigger studio news of the day was that PBS came out to conduct an interview and take footage of me working yesterday for a segment they'll run in February. I believe it will be on statewide for Rocky Mountain PBS here in Colorado but I don't know for sure yet. I will post the times when I know them, as well as a copy of the video itself I hope!
Other than that I am teaching at Mesa State College again; we started last week, as well as a few classes at St Mary's hospital (the Pastel Society of Colorado teaches classes there for people undergoing cancer treatments and their caregivers--always a terrific bunch of students,) and a watercolor class at the Art Center. I'm also conducting a workshop on pastels at the Art Center which is going great! All my classes have fun people; that helps.
Happy painting!
