Palette knife painting is quickly regaining my appreciation for the type of art I can create. I first tried palette knives back in the early 80s and find a new level of pleasure returning to it!

I should add, an important difference for me now vs the early 80s – besides several decades of creativity 😊 – is my very recent (last few weeks) experimental use with an old painter’s additive, marble dust!

Later this month I hope to write more about both 1) why I’m being drawn to creating abstracts that people and other living things can fit into, and 2) how using marble dust is changing how and what I paint (smiles)

More of my painting work, from the 80s thru today, all styles, is in my Painting Collection at Fine Art America – https://felipeadan-lerma.pixels.com/collections/paintings

Thanks so much!
