So where have I been? Long story,short answer...here is where I am!    Five years away from blogging but miles along my journey as an artist. I've studied, painted and exhibited watercolor, mixed media,acrylic and now oils. Many art shows later,cross country trips, 2 different homes ...5 grandchildren! I've landed in a place that has brought me full circle...wanting to share my work ,my techniques, my studio and experiences as a dailypainter.  I hope you will continue to seek me out . I'll be right here. Please take time to scroll through my older posts to get to know my work of my past to see where I now have come.The life of an artist is "Take Me There..." oil on panel 5"x7"   helenharrispaintings.com a wondrous journey if you choose to take the first step...walk with me ...again.

River Run

Computer gremlins have delayed my blog posting this week ...but all is well now. The Boardwalk show was hot and humid but many vacationers and locals were out and about. Thanks to all who took the time to stop at my tent to watch me demonstrate my mixed media techniques. The painting " River Run " received the most comments. It is my newest painting,so that makes me feel as if I'm headed in the right direction. This compostion in a panoramic format was interesting. It was a struggle not to allow it to break at center point into two paintings yet keep the focus close to center in the distance to allow the depth of field and atmosphere that I wanted to achieve. I think it worked well .
