The Secret Life of Towel Bars





Our new spice rack was once an old, ugly, abandoned towel bar trapped in the wrong body.  I helped it find its true identity with some paint and a scrap piece of wood.  This was painted with some of my cat's fur glued onto a toothpick.  You don't need fancy tools or materials to make cool stuff. I just wanted a simple way to access our favorite @penzeys2.0 spice blends.
PS: Ignore the awful 1986 wallpaper!

Neon skies, tiny paintings

I've been painting a few tiny Northern Lights lately!  They glow under black light and are really fun. Seeing the Aurora Borealis is on my bucket list.  I don't know when I'll have the means to travel to Iceland and sleep under one of those glass-roofed yurt things. But in the mean time, I'll paint them while the mood strikes.

These all have homes.  But I will make more!  Some of the photos show what the paintings look like under black light. WOOOOOOooooooOOOOOOO!


All of these small paintings were made by doing an abstract "poured painting" underneath with fluid acrylic techniques that included neon/black light paint.  If you look closely, you can see the "cells" underneath the painting.  They were then embellished with more neon paint and black paint to form the silhouette terrain, trees, and stars.

Tiny Aurora Borealis black light painting


Under black light it looks like this:


I painted a tiny painting of the Northern Lights for Django Jay.  It flows under black light and is pretty effing cool, I think 😊.  The under painting was a poured painting with neon paint. The northern lights were painted with more neon paint, plus black for the treescape.

It's 4" square.  Big thing in small space.  Molto en parvo.
