[art]sail

 so, there was a contest of sorts...and somehow i'm studying sailing.


a dear friend of mine sent me a contest; a call for local artist to paint a mural onto a sail....like on a boat!  i entered, which included providing an artist statement and examples of my work. lets be honest...i totally did this for my mom, she would have gotten the biggest kick out of it.  


as fate would have it i was invited to participate. i picked up my sail, brought it home and laid it out in the basement.  thankfully it was pretty small.  i would find a few minutes here and there to work on it.  by the end of the month i was nearly finished!

my first large scale piece!  although the next one needs to find a table or vertical surface to be on. painting on the floor is something i don't plan on repeating.
