This is a real violin. Actually it is an old one retired from service in the local school system. It is just as wonderful on the back side if I do say so myself. I painted it to be part of a fund raiser for the Sarasota Orchestra. As you can see it forms a part of the 'Bloomin Gardens series. Perhaps I will look for other recycled items to paint. Create a Green Series.
For me art is a matter of balance between heart and head: my heart wants color and light; my head requires balance and structure. Science and art are the two sides of me and my challenge is to share both by creating works that combine pattern and design with spontaneity and glorious color.
