Found objects ARRIVED from Florida!!!

My deepest thanks to my good friend Lisa Moretti for sending her special objects to be used for inspiration in the third painting in my "Spirit Brush" series.

Thanks so much for your never ending support lisa, I am excited to see what your object will reveal.

I used found object to make a Brush and quickly create a visual roadmap.

Then I rotate the canvas till I see an image or story.

Much like a sculptor I start to carve out the image or story.

I start pulling out the image by blocking out some color choices.
