How I Make a Painting, Video

Here is the video of the process of one of the portraits in the Women Who Changed the World.
Don't bother telling me that I left the "s" off the word "come" in "here comes the oil" I didn't want to do the whole thing over again. I have made many movies in iMovie, but it seems as if as soon as I decide to make another one the format is changed andI have to learn the whole thing over again. I am getting too old for this.

How to End A Series?

I always work in series of at least 12 paintings. I made 14 paintings in Women Who Changed The World. I have lists of more incredible women, but my gut told me, 14 was enough. I have worked for months. It was not fun anymore. Of course struggling thorough weeks of the pain Shingles didn't help. I am feeling much better now and am thinking about my next series. In the meantime, I am welcoming 2 artists this week who are coming for one day private encaustic classes. That is a good way to move on to something else.

Here is the short video of all 14 paintings:

Let me know what you think and about a good venue for exhibiting them.

I am exhaling today.
