#4 - Lavender Roses, 6" round, oil on wood
#5 - Sun Facing, 6" round, oil on wood

Thanks Kevin_. I've been meaning to do this for years, had a lot of ideas bubbling around. Glad to get them out there.

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 2nd, 2012, 01:55 PM

#13, Peak, 6" round oil on wood

**Aaron_** · August 2nd, 2012, 03:56 PM

I love the latest pieces where you go more abstract and focus more on the composition. They're very um...absorbing, for lack of a better word. And some of the texture work and color choice reminds me a bit of Gustav Klimt who is my one of favs.

I'll be following this project with interest.

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 2nd, 2012, 06:50 PM

Thanks Aaron... hopefully i'll have the balls to experiment some more instead of just relying on what i know. Baby steps, i guess.

#14 Wing 1, 7 x 5 oil on clayboard
#15 Wing 2, 6 x 5 oil on wood

Just got a mess of birch panels. so exciting. Whee.

**Psychobuddy** · August 10th, 2012, 12:39 PM

Really nice work, you have a lovely style. I can't wait to see more.

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 17th, 2012, 02:06 PM

Thanks Psychobuddy!

Been working on paying jobs, sorta busy. I've always avoided painting mother-child stuff, even though I have 4 daughters and mothering is the majority of what I think about... But it seemed like not "serious" enough or something. Haha, that sounds so stupid. Like making pretty pictures of potentially sexy girls is serious.

#16 - Dear
#17 - Field
#18 - Spark

all 6 x 6, oil on birch.

**Dahlium** · August 17th, 2012, 02:29 PM

Wow! I could completely imagine #21 at a exhibition!
Do you have any advice? ^^

Keep going man!

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 17th, 2012, 02:32 PM

Thanks! That would be cool. I hope to go past 100 and even out the rough spots.
Advice? About what? Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.

**thesimplylife** · August 17th, 2012, 02:36 PM

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 17th, 2012, 03:10 PM

Thanks, thesimplylife. I like your blog!

**LisaAnnGreen** · August 21st, 2012, 10:37 PM
