Bukowski Painting- 5 Square Feet

1 foot canvases

I decided to put 5 pieces in a show at the APW Gallery- World of Imagination Vol. 2
Even though there will be thousands of square foot paintings, mine will be linked by image, paint surface and the fact that they fit together. It is Sibley Park in Mankato, Minnesota, still a part of my garden series.

2 Piece Garden (in progress)

These two canvases finish the 5 small paintings for the APW Gallery show coming up. It is a fun kind of discipline to compose with limitations of scale and in sections. I wanted to do some paintings that are consistent with my concerns as an artist. The garden in modular small scale. I played some movies with special features going while I painted, so it was like having Martin Scorsese talking to me about film making while I painted. I think it may have pushed me a little.
