[Sue Wiley, Artist] A Prickly Subject

[Susan Abston Wiley]

I took another workshop a couple of weeks ago with Vie Dunn-Harr, a San Antonio artist who does amazing floral abstracts and teaches her unusual techniques in a 3-day workshop at Dena Wenmohs Bunkhouse. The last time I took this workshop, I painted a floral (A Sensitive Bromeliad) and a parrot painting (Jungle Siesta), proving that, as Vie says, the technique will work with any subject. This painting has some of Vie's touches; she loves to show rather than tell you how to fix problems. I was frustrated as usual, since I rarely do well in workshops, but in the end liked both paintings I came home with. I'll post the other as soon as I photograph it.

Oil, 12x12
