We are all pretty under the weather here at Casa Marcum, but I didn’t want to let this roaring stomach bug leave you hanging.
I am sure some of you will not approve, but I painted over our big orange painting.  By now you should know that I am not afraid to redo things or change things that don’t feel quite right.  This change was kinda spur of the moment.  Chris was headed off to a meeting and I mentioned, “That orange painting doesn’t really go with our house.”  He agreed, “Nope.”  Right then he helped me take it down and in the hour he was gone, I splashed some colors that it SHOULD contain on the oversized canvas and then figured I would come back to it soon.  Well, I haven’t touched it since–and it is kinda growing on us, although I definitely plan need to go back in and tweak some things.
The new art takes a bit of a back seat and lets other aspects of the space really shine:
Thanks Kristen. I definitely could have found a new home for the old painting but I took plenty of pictures and I paint over my own art OFTEN. I try not to get too attached to my own work.
Too bad you couldn’t find a new home for the orange painting – I really liked it! This new painting is really nice, too, and I think it works much better in this space!
