Feeling artistic & destructive.
I am in the process of taking an electric sander to this gigantic Lee Reynolds Burr painting:
It’s 4′x5′ and has been hanging over looking our foyer… And I hate it. Its got a grey-mauve-sea foam color scheme going on with a touch of 80’s abstract-tasticness. It makes me cringe every time I look at it. However is is hand painted & giganic. But after doing some quick research, the canvas is basically worth more than I could sell the painting for…. If anyone actually would want to buy it. But as an artist, I don’t think that I could, in good faith, sell this to someone who would put it on display. So I’m taking a sander to it & I’m going to do a kinda pop-art splatter paint thing with a bunch of the bright colors that I’ve used to paint some of the rooms. I’ll let you know how it turns out.

[...] I mentioned in this post, I had a huge 4 ft by 5 ft canvas that I was repainting, because the original was totally heinous [...]
