Because nothing noteworthy occurred anywhere in the world through the month of August and the first half of September, the local news in New York City turned its attentions to a few women who have apparently been bothering people in the otherwise calm, decent section of Manhattan known as Times Square.

TATTOOS SERIES - SIREN, originally uploaded by kathy weller.
As I've been blogging about all week, my TATTOOS series of original paintings is now finally live (woo hoo!) and for sale in my Big Cartel store! I enjoyed creating these paintings very much, and I am so happy to share them with you. You know, it is nice to offer a painting for sale when it still has some of that "just created" fairy dust all over it... and look, I have not just ONE but FOUR small but mighty pieces that fit that description. I'm proud to offer these and I hope you enjoy them. A few things I want to mention about these paintings:

• Each painting is 4" x 4". Thay are small and intimate works, but they are also detailed and richly layered paintings.

• My paint of choice is Golden products and Liquitex Professional series. I find these brands to make the finest acrylic paints on the market. I am telling you, in my experience nothing kills a burst of creative inspiration like bad materials (been there!) so I ALWAYS buy the very best I can afford. And believe me it shows, in the work and also in my dedication to it! So yes, good materials are not only GOOD materials but they assist and enhance the experience as well as the joy in creating the art itself!

• I am not planning to create any further pieces in this series, and for the time being and foreseeable future you will not see any more of this style of painting from me. This series was a "comet in the night" so to speak, when I needed the light of a shooting comet to reinvigorate my creative spirit! I am thrilled with the results, but this style of work is not a path I am actively pursuing at this time.

• I will not be selling art prints of this series of paintings any time in the foreseeable future. In thirty years, who knows? But I have made the decision to not sell prints of this series for a couple of reasons that are important to me.

So, enjoy! Thank you for your interest in my work, and I hope you enjoy these paintings as much as I enjoyed the process of creating them, and the final product. :) I appreciate that you are interested in following my creative journey, and I thank you for that and for being here!

3. New original paintings - TATTOOS

I have recently created a small collection of brand new paintings. The style of the art is not what you typically see from me! Once in awhile I like to re-energize by working in a style which is not my day-to-day. These works are the final products of my latest creative excursion. The subject I tackle in the series is TATTOOS, and the people who have them. Tattoos have always been mysterious, fascinating, and endlessly interesting to me—the tattoos themselves, the reasons people get them, and what the marks personally mean to them. Then of course there’s the fact that tattoos are actually living, breathing art in the literal sense.

The four acrylic-on-wood paintings in this group, "Angel", Henry", "Bird" and "Siren" will be released for sale in my Big Cartel shop at 9 PM EST on Thursday, November 11th.  I sure hope to see you there!
