Art: Black & White

I currently have two large canvases leaning against my office wall waiting for me toĀ paint. My parents commissioned me. (Can I pretend it’s a real art gig?). WhileĀ I’m not quite ready to paint them (lack of free time as of late), I am ready to share some of the interesting piecesĀ art I’ve been eyeing lately.

There’s more black than white in most of these pieces,Ā andĀ I love how different they are from one another. The “top secret” piece is so amusing (to me, anyway).

    The jellies are neat! I also like the antique store front. There was a place like that in Ottawa and I have pics of it, but not in black and white – kicking myself now, will have to go back! šŸ™‚
