Marfa Monday - "Marfa Tower"


Well, I've got some new ideas as to how I want to set up this blog. I think what I'm going to do is designate different themes for different days. Here is what I'm thinking:

*Marfa Mondays - all things Marfa and the Big Bend region
*Tuesday Tunes - A look into some of my favorite musical interests
*Wednesday Works - A look at some of my more recent artwork, or what I'm working on now
*Throwback Thursday - A look at some of my older artwork......at least 5 years old
*Friday Favorites - My favorite artists, websites, blogs, or pieces of artwork
*Studio Saturday - I'll post some interesting items found in my studio/collectibles room
*Sunday Funday - Random......could be anything

So, let's kick it off the first Marfa Monday with a recent painting that I did of the Marfa water tower. I took the picture and put it into photoshop. I went to the filter tab and changed it up some. Then I drew it out on a 2' x 2' canvas. Then I chose some colors to go with it. I wanted a bright bold red sky, but I wanted the water tower to be rather simple. Anyways, I really liked how it turned out. We have it hanging in our living room. I may do a few more in this style of some other Texas towers. Who knows?

  1. I like your organization idea...I'm tuning in everyday to see what's new! I think you should send your stuff off to Kormac McCarthy (Texas writer)...Your art would look perfect on the cover of one of his upcoming novels!
