I decided a year ago to join the experimental group, ISEA — seemed like a good fit for me! And I noticed I could join as a lifetime member. So I took the plunge :) and started entering. Nothing the first year — you know how it is.
But this year I am one of four Oregon artists whose work made the show in Traverse City, Michigan — I recently packaged my painting and sent it off. You might enjoy seeing all our accepted work. How diverse each piece is!

"Tactile"
Yes! Look at that texture... it is so beautifully layered. And the color palette

"Reincarnation"
Marbling, of course, for me.
This piece helped me get NWS acceptance. It was the painting that was NOT used for the Home & Gardens poster (the original poster art was a gift for editor Sandra Rowe).
You can see it before marbling
HERE. MUCH better after!

"Rustic"
It's "painted" with rust and coffee — no actual paint! How cool is that?!!!
