MELODY CLEARY - CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE, NATURE, AND ABSTRACT PAINTINGS I haven't posted since January! I've been working on this new 'journey' I've been on and am loving what I'm learning!

Unknown Territory (sold) by Melody Cleary 2018  I haven't posted since October due to neck/arm issues again....and well, the holidays when I get little art accomplished. November began with me joining artist Nancy Hillis' Studio Journey online workshop to help keep my hand in in a small way. It's all about ABSTRACTS!! Each month we are given her 'bundle' or talks, demos, and study exercises focusing on working loose and unplanned....intuitively. And making your own unique marks....love the mark making.

Comments on my studies above are welcome.

I have completed a companion piece, both 30x30 on canvas. I have submitted these images to a designer for her client's consideration.
