More Inchie Paintings

I actually completed these a while ago, but at the encouragement of my friend Nena, I'm finally putting some new paintings up. I really like both of these pieces. Unfortunately, the scanner won't let me show the whole painting, but most of it is here. Both of these paintings are square.

I love the variety and richness of color in this painting, and the way meaning is implied in the letters, but not clear enough to be understood.

Again, I love the colors in the painting below, but for the minimalism as opposed to the variety. I also love the way the composition suggests a human face, through an accident of inchie randomness.

Painting an "Inchie"

When you make hundreds and hundreds of one-inch-sized works of art (inchies), the question inevitably arises--what do I do with these? A friend suggested I make large paintings of them. Sounded good to me, so today I made a 12 x 12 painting of a 1 x 1 inchie.

Here is the 1 x 1 inchie:


And here is the 12 x 12 painting (due to the size of my scanner, you aren't getting the full painting, but this is pretty close:


I liked how it started to look like a landscape painting, so I decided to leave out the diagonal yellow lines, even though those are what attracted me to this inchie in the first place.
