Q&Q Cut-Up #11

Seven weeks ago, I was about three days into starting a 12x16" painting adventure.


Today, four square inches of that early-stages work-in-progress—long since transformed beyond recognition, and chopped into tiny canvas tiles in the process—strut their stuff in an entirely different composition.

I don't know where this stuff comes from.

You have won! I am glad you didn't take my advise and stop although you have kept the basic part of the composition that I love! Those scripts and bright squares really emphasize and add the pop! Love that title!

Carol, happy to know I 'won' you over! I knew I had a good thing going, but I knew it needed to comb its hair, put on a touch of makeup, and pop in some simple earrings before heading out into the world. Happy also to hear that you like the title. Thanks!

Thank you, Jen. Transformation, indeed … and of the happy kind!

LOL, love your statement Dotty! "I don't know where this stuff comes from."
From Divine spirit, pure grace. Your exuberant exploration! You are right, I love this even more! ;)
You are a treasure Dotty!

Thank you on all accounts, Sheila! And, yes: divine spirit, pure grace.

Congratulations! You made it!
I don't know where this stuff comes from either. That's the mircle of it. It can't be predicted or forced.

Thanks, Simone. Yup—can't be predicted or forced : )
