Hello everyone!

Been working it in Studio 8! Fresh off the easel is 'Keep it Clean'. This was a fun piece to work on, difficult with all the varing layers of white...but fun. Let me know what you think!

I have also continued to work in and explore encautic painting. I am quite pleased with this peice, which I am calling 'Divided Tempers.' I would love your feedback on this one too! I love the spontenaety of encaustic painting, and it is a fun step away from traditional painting, yet there are so many possibilities. My mind is all a-whir with ideas. In this little painting I really wanted to concentrate on capturing and trapping a lot of texture and I used a lot of different kinds of medias throughout the process. So much fun!

I also wanted to let everyone know about a new feature I am trying out on my website...a LIVE CHAT feature. I have called it Cagney's Chat Box. You can now chat with me directly! I am going to try and stay with it during the  weekdays to see how the interest goes. Let me know if you like the feature and the open communication! Go there now and check it out!

Until next time - Rock on!
