Day 310: "Afternoon naps", acrylic on unstretched canvas, 9x12"
The theme for November is interior spaces, as an ode to the season of hunkering down for the winter and enjoying the warmth and comfort of home. This month’s paintings will feature scenes, lived spaces from my own cozy apartment, such as a corner of my kitchen where my monstera plant lives next to the window, or my favorite couch in the living room in which I’ve taken many afternoon naps, or my Dutch oven on my stovetop. The paintings will feature interior scenes from other spaces as well. This painting is of my living room couch in which I’ve taken many afternoon naps. It’s where I sit to watch TV or do work on my laptop, or sometimes even paint. It’s easily one of my favorite spaces in the house. The painting was done using acrylic on unstretched canvas with the edges taped off, leaving a white border. The canvas is an eco blend made of 50% hemp and 50% cotton and primed. It will be unframed, signed and dated on the back.
This is part of my year long project, "This sweet simple existence". During this year of living creatively, I will create small artworks everyday based around objects from my daily life, (mostly food, household items, perhaps the view from my window etc). thereby simply documenting the extraordinary in the ordinary joys of a simple life.
