self portrait/new smartphone website

                                                                  5"x4" oil on canvas

I have also been working on a smartphone website. To view go here: m.jeannehospod.com

still life / landscape

                                                         both are oil on canvas, 10" square 

free form exercises, sketches, etc.

It should be pretty obvious what is from observation and what is invented.

"Sketches" can be a misnomer though. The idea that the free form work would be brief is an attractive one, but it hasn't turned out that way lately. They grow and change and I linger with them (even though other projects are calling to me) until they tell me they are complete. That said, the plein air ink sketch third one down was actually the briefest (and most satisfying).

More coming (other stuff in progress as usual)

new year exercise 1

Along with numerous ongoing projects, I'm trying to do one free-form-meditative-painting/drawing a day. I may need to approach them with a time limit so it doesn't cut into everything else I need to focus on. The point of it is 1)  to just complete a work in a session and 2) have a creative warm up before getting on with whatever is the priority for the day. Approx 8"x8" mixed media.
