I have a full studio at home. I wanted to blog about working on the road and working on vacation in order to remind all you artists out there that you can do it, even with limited supplies and limited space. These pieces are 12x16 which is much smaller than the 20x24 I usually work in! small pieces are good for vacation because you can complete them in less time, then you don't feel like you are working as hard!Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785958267715615197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-90777072026603885232009-07-08T11:03:04.264-04:002009-07-08T11:03:04.264-04:00This is wonderful!

So often people confuse the terms abstract and non-representational when the word abstract means that the artist has found the essence of the subject and painted it without copying as a camera would. You're good at that.<br />Have a fun-filled Fourth with your family.
