Cradled Panels...to paint or not to paint?

2012-01-21T10:51:00.000-08:00

I normally like to work on large stretched canvases, but a clearance sale at Michael's got me thinking in a different direction for a change. I've never painted on cradled panels before, but these neat looking little "boxes" were so appealing, that I bought all 8 of them.

I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on cradled panels. I know that encaustic artists are partial to these panels because of the hard surface. But, if you're a painter, do you prefer the hard surface to the flexibility of canvas?

Purchase Information

I've written quite a bit lately about how difficult it is to get back into painting after a long hiatus away from the studio. Today, I found some renewed motivation at my local Michael's store. I've been thinking about painting on cradled panels and when I walked through the art section of the store, I found that they had marked almost all their cradled panels to a low clearance price. I quickly picked up 8 new panels and now can't wait to get started on them! Yesterday I ordered Matisse Flow Acrylics from Jerry's Artarama and I know that as soon as my order comes in, I'll be raring to get started. Nothing like opening up a box of new art supplies to get the creative juices flowing again!

Now, my next project is to find space in my studio for all the new "toys"!

I hope you'll visit my website to see my original abstract paintings.

A Bright New Day

40"x30"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

$2500

This painting symbolizes a new start for me this year. 2011 has been a difficult year due to the illness and death of my beloved mom. Even though I am already in my mid-60's, it is still difficult to accept the fact that someone who's been there always, is now gone.

I'm finally beginning to see the light at the end of the seemingly eternal tunnel of details that need to be wrapped up. Personal items need to be sorted through, a home needs to be sold and so many countless decisions to be made.

But, it's a new year now and a new beginning is in sight.

This vibrant, acrylic painting was an experiment with a different way to apply paint to canvas. I started by squirting fluid acrylics directly to the canvas and then brushing to blend the colors. While the paint was still liquid, I decided to do some monoprinting using a variety of materials to establish the composition. In the end, I was pretty pleased with the result.

Morning Sun

30"x30"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

Here are some "in progress" shots of this painting.

I textured the canvas heavily with modeling paste before washing in the color. To create movement and a composition, I "drew" in line work with black paint. At this point, the painting began to suggest plant forms blowing in the wind. I blocked in more color and obliterated areas with gesso. As the painting developed, I started to define the forms with heavier layers of paint.

I enjoy experimenting with textures and watching the painting develop as I play with the various elements until I'm finally satisfied with the result.

Back to Basics

24"x24"x1.5"

Mixed-media on canvas

Once in a while it's fun to look around the studio to find things to include or to hide in a painting. Several years ago I had cast some shapes out of PermaStone. As I was rummaging through my cabinet of odds and ends, I came across a couple of pieces that I thought would be fun to include in the painting. I also added clear tar gel, crackle paste, heavy gloss gel, oil pastel and a few collage pieces that I cut from a magazine. As I slowly started to build up the texture and layering the paint, I also started subtracting out some areas to reveal the coats of underlying color. Diluted gesso helped to "veil" areas that I thought were too dominant and I used glazes of transparent color to eventually bring the painting to completion.

YUPO and where the heck does the time go? Filomena de Andrade Booth

2011-03-23T04:46:00.000-07:00

Acrylic on YUPO

It's been a long time since I posted anything on my blog, and I didn't want you to think that I had somehow fallen off the planet. Visits from family, normal every-day obligations and probably some laziness has played a part in keeping me away from contributing anything new to this blog. Spring is also here and all those chores associated with getting the gardens ready have also played a huge role in my absence.

Anyway, while looking through my files, I came across some paintings that I had done on YUPO a while back. If you have never tried this amazing product, I hope you will some day. YUPO is actually a synthetic plastic material that was originally used to make tough, tear-proof labels. I suppose some poor artist accidentally dumped his watercolors on packing material he had laying around in the studio and discovered the amazing properties of YUPO. Because the paint isn't absorbed into the material, it can dance around on the surface, drying in interesting puddles and shapes. Many artists work in watercolor but I prefer fluid acrylics, which stained the material permanently and can't be manipulated when dry.

Prelude to Spring

36"x36"x1.5'

Acrylic on Canvas

This is a commissioned painting I just completed for a client. The colors are very soft and muted on a very textured canvas. I started out by using a palette knife to apply the paint on the canvas and finished by applying glazes of color to create a softer look. I "washed" the pink in the middle of the painting and did a little spraying with water to create some texture. Overall, I'm very pleased with this painting and hope the client will too.

Rays of Light - in progress

2011-02-03T14:04:00.000-08:00

I started this painting several days ago and, in between a series of interruptions, was able to finish it today. The canvas was heavily textured with a variety of mediums as well as a failed painting that I gessoed over. I always like to start with some sort of line work to help me establish the composition. Whether I decide to stick to that, is anybody's guess.

I continued to apply glazes of color to the canvas. It's hard to see in these shots, but there are a lot of subtle variations in the color and depth of the tones.

I think it's finished. Tomorrow I'll try to

take better pictures, if it's not so miserably

What Goes Around...

40"x40"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

Sometimes it's nice to try something completely different for a change. My compositions are generally more geometric, based on rectangles and squares. Last week, after texturing the canvas, I decided to begin the painting with large, sweeping shapes. Lots more texturing and metallic touches later and this spiral emerged. I wish the sunlight outside had been brighter when I took this picture...there is no beige in the painting. I finagled the best I could with Photoshop, but couldn't get the pale sage green quite right. I'll try again on a sunnier day.

Fields and Streams

30"x40"x1.5"

Acrylic on canvas

The inspiration for this painting came from my view from a plane earlier this year. It was early spring and the fields had not yet started to turn green. Although the window seat is usually the most cramped and difficult to get out of, it's always my favorite place to watch the world go by. The variety of colors and texture in the scene below me lead me to create this painting.

Fields and Streams is one of several paintings I currently have available on Artquiver. To see my entire portfolio of original abstract paintings, please visit my website.

Prelude

24"x24"x.75"

Mixed-media on canvas

Sometimes it's just nice to let loose and let the painting decide which way to go. I searched around for all sorts of materials and mediums to pour, scratch, glaze, etc. on to the canvas. Transparent fluid colors were poured on to the already textured canvas. Heavy gel medium, glass bead texture gel and crackle paste all added to the interesting ways that they interacted with the fluid paint. Accents of metallic gold and iridescent paints created a jewel-like effect.

I am offering Prelude at a very special price of $250.00 for one week only, please click here to purchase.

I've been going through a bit of an artist's "block" recently, but I guess that's pretty normal after an intense period of painting nearly every day. Sometimes we just need a break away from the studio. Anyway, this "dry spell" has also taken caused me to not blog as often as I should. So, here I am...back again.

I decided to go through some paintings that I've sold in the last year, hoping for inspiration. I came across "Dilemma" and remembered specifically how much I enjoyed working on this painting. It was actually a reworked painting over another that just didn't work for me. I've learned that no painting is ever completely a failure, it just may need a "break" for a while...just like I do now.

Almost There

36"x30"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

Every time I start a new painting, it's almost like re-learning every step each time. I think that because I approach each painting in a different manner, without a preconceived notion in mind, it gives me the freedom to experiment with new ways of doing things.

In this painting, I applied paint freely to the canvas. I used whatever was leftover on my palette from the last painting, my only concern being to establish the composition and structure of the painting. As soon as paint is applied, the fear of the dreaded "white" space disappears. I continued to build up the paint layers, each time adding textural elements and wiping out areas to expose under layers of color. It's a slow process but eventually the structure of the painting begins to emerge from the amorphous and undefined "blob". At this point, I begin to more carefully emphasize certain elements that appeal to me. When, finally, I reach the point where I know that there is no more that can be added or subtracted, the painting is finished.

Come Sunrise

36"x36"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

Last week I stretched and textured several new canvases. Seeing them sit in the studio, inspires me to pick them up and set them up on the easel. I started this painting by applying several washes of color to establish the composition. I slowly built up the layers as I scaped and washed out areas to expose underlying colors. I love how the texture of the canvas changes the way light bounces off the surface, creating even more interest.

Endless Time

30"x40"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

I recently completed this heavily textured painting by applying several coats of gesso and acrylic gels. Before the layers were dry, I scraped and scratched into the surface with a variety of tools. After blending the colors with heavy gloss gel, I applied the paint with palette knives, brushes and sponges. The sculptural quality of the painting invites the viewer to touch the surface of the canvas.

I hope you enjoy watching my latest art clip of my new painting, Jardim dos Segredos. I included some "in progress" shots because I know my artist friends always ask to see how I start a painting. This one was not intended to be a floral, but the underpainting suggested a garden path with flowers.

I recently completed this large painting and currently have it listed for sale on Artful Home. Layer upon layer of glazes have been applied. Each successive layer changes the underlying color and adds depth and visual texture. I love to wipe away areas as the glaze begins to dry, revealing even more interesting passages in the painting.

Cycle of Days

24"x30"x.75"

Acrylic on canvas

Have I mentioned before that I love to play around with texture and a variety of techniques? I'm sure I have!

I started this painting by texturing the canvas heavily with gesso. I slathered it on, leaving hills and valleys and allowed it to dry. Many layers of thin glazes of transparent acrylic, iridescent gold, thin washes of gesso and runs of water all created depth and a moody patina.

Cycle of Days is currently available through Artfulhome. Please contact me for more information.

Transformations...painting in progress

2010-07-17T13:56:00.000-07:00

Occasionally I like to take pictures of my work as it evolves on the easel. I don't always know where I'm going when I start, but I usually know when I get there.

Here is the canvas with a few guide lines establishing the structure, composition of the painting and some preliminary color. At this point, I'm not too worried about the colors I'm using.

A little more paint and the composition begins to emerge.

I decided to add bolder color...some hot pink and yellow orange.

More color and more glazes.

At this point I was begining to think that I was almost finished but this is where I needed a second opinion. I asked my critic, my husband, what he thought. He confirmed my feeling that it needed something more.

I decided to tie the whole thing together with a thin glaze of Quinacridone Gold mixed with a little Raw Umber. Before the glaze began to set, I wiped out circles, exposing the underlying colors.

Here is the finished piece:

$10.00 s/h

Every once in a while I like to root around in my studio closet just to see what I have stashed away since we moved here. I found this painting I did on Yupo a couple of years ago. If you haven't tried working on this fun material, you should. It is a synthetic (plastic) material that allows the paint to slide around on the surface, creating all sorts of interesting forms. It was originally created as a tough, durable material for the graphic arts industry and was manufactored in a variety of thicknesses. Somehow, a starving artist somewhere decided to try it out and suddenly discovered it made a fun surface to paint on. Or, maybe he just had some packing material laying around the studio and accidentally dripped paint on it, who knows, either way it's an interesting discovery.

Click here for a demonstration on how to paint on Yupo.

The painting is matted and ready to frame. Frame is not included.

I love to layer thin glazes of color, one over another. As each layer begins to dry, I do a little subtractive painting to expose the layers beneath. Heavier layers of color create more of a focal point, drawing the eye to the work to explore more of the detail.

The Daydream

40"x36"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

This is my latest painting. It is heavily textured with thick layers of color that were applied with a large palette knife. The problem with working with acrylics on a large canvas is that the paint sets up pretty fast and makes blending nearly impossible. As I applied the paint, mixed with a variety of mediums, I used my hands and fingers to blend the paint directly on the canvas. Sometimes the best tools are right at "hand".

This painting will be available through Artfulhome. Contact me if you have any questions.

I've been working on getting the red in this painting as close to the actual painting for the last couple of days and this is about as close as I can get. The image is a bit more "orangy" than the cadmium red that is in the painting. I adjusted the white balance, used a polarizing filter to cut glare, photographed indoors with lights, photographed out doors without, and so it went. Reds are hard to to get right!!

Another painting in progress by Filomena de Andrade Booth - Texas Contemporary Abstract Artist

2010-05-23T15:02:00.000-07:00

I'm enjoying taking pictures of my work in progress! It gives me a chance to look back and see the changes and adjustments I make as I paint. Here is my latest painting.

This is my prepped canvas. I gessoed over a painting that just wasn't working out for me. The gesso was applied thickly and then scraped with a notched tool to give it some texture. The canvas is 30"x36".

I made just a couple of additions to this but I think it looks pretty finished to me.

Someone asked me recently about inspiration. I don't always start out with a particular inspiration or idea for a painting, although as I start applying the paint to the canvas, the "inspiration" comes. I try not to be too "boxed" in to a particular idea. When I do, the painting usually turns out looking very tight and forced. I like it to just flow freely. I also try not to repeat the same theme, although this one is based on another painting - Interlude.

Painting in Progress...

2010-05-20T11:21:00.000-07:00

One of my friends recently suggested that I post a painting in progress. So, this morning I got up determined to finish a painting in one sitting. I actually got my ritual morning crossword puzzle and Suduko done quickly and headed for the studio with coffee cup in hand. Finishing a painting on the same day I start usually works out best for me. If I have to struggle with a piece for several days, I almost always end up with something that looks tight and forced. Those are the paintings that end up with another fresh coat of gesso, prepped for another start on a day when the Muse is smiling.

These three shots show the studio just before I started painting this morning at about 9:30. You can see that the canvas is already gessoed and ready to go. I also gessoed over some 10"x10" stretched canvases that have been hanging around in the studio for a while.

This picture shows the new painting in progress. I like to layer many thin glazes of acrylics, spray water, wash off, scrape, stencil, stamp and whatever else I can think of to create an interesting surface.

This is the finished painting. It was about 12:30 when I felt that the painting was done. Now I need a title...any ideas?

I'll post the "real" cropped picture tomorrow. This painting will be submitted to ArtfulHome. I recently submitted several paintings to them to be juried for consideration on their site. They love my work but asked me to submit some work with the color red. This painting is based on one I did a while back...you can see the original painting my computer screen.

Tuscan Inspired Original Abstract Landscape Palette Knife Painting by Texas Contemporary Artist Filomena Booth

Tuscan Landscape grouping

I just completed a series of small heavily textured acrylic palette knife mixed media paintings on canvas. Each painting measures 10"x10"x1.5". The movie, Under the Tuscan Sun, was the inspiration for the series. Although I've never traveled to Italy, I tried to capture the warmth of the sun and feeling of the countryside. The paintings are accented with collaged elements...postage stamps, archetectural images and a variety of decorative papers.

Acrylic/Mixed-media on panel

A while back I decided to try painting on masonite panels. I

created two paintings and have had them sitting around in my studio for a couple of months. Because they were unframed, I really couldn't enjoy them the way they were meant to be viewed. I decided to order some plain black satinwood frames and boy, did that make all the difference. Now the two paintings have "presence" and a sense of importance. I guess paintings are like people - dress them up and you can take them places!!

Untold Story

30"x30"x1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

I decided to try something a little different for a change. After mixing my colors on my palette, I added heavy matte gel to give the paint more body and started to apply the impasto to the canvas with a palette knife. The thick paint didn't dry as fast and allowed me to do some mixing on the canvas...which was nice. Over all, I'm pretty pleased with this painting.

I was recently going through my files of art I have sold in recent years and came across this small collage I created in 2008. Although I normally paint on canvas, every once in a while I get an urge to dig through my collection of emphemera that I've amassed over the years. I love playing around with various shapes, textures and colors. This little piece was especially fun to create. Guess it's time to get to my drawer full of "junk" and see what I can find!
