Paulette Insall, Tucson Abstract Artist in Arizona | Modern contemporary traditional luxury home decor ideas

Beautiful art that resonates in the soul

Contemporary Abstract Painter Paulette Insall's paintings come from her heart....expressing emotion as a visual language, using pure color and expressive marks to connect and communicate. Her abstract art emits a special light and magic that is both spiritual and moving.

A little fun with collage....digital, that is!

Have been feeling a bit under the weather the past couple of days, so no new paintings to show ya. This afternoon I played for a bit on Picmonkey and created the collage below with some of my past art.

If you've never heard of Picmonkey, you really should pop on over and play around. Its waaaaaaay cool! You can apply all sorts of effects and frames to your photos, plus create cool collages like mine.....though I didn't do the text on there...I did that on my computer in Photoshop Elements. You could always save out your college and then upload it back to Picmonkey and add some text. :)

Monday is field trip day for my kiddo's class and I'm supposed to be a chaperone...provided this silly fever goes away by then. So, I'll catch y'all on Tuesday with some new art progress pics and such. :) Have a fantabulous weekend! xoxo

In the studio this week...sneak peek

I'm off to the studio after I make this really quick post, but I wanted to give y'all a sneak peek at what I've been working on in the studio this week. Thanks so much for stopping by to see what little 'ol me has been up to. Happy Friday y'all!!! <3

Lots of new paintings!!!

Lots of new paintings being created in my new studio these days! Many sold before I was able to get over here to post them (some of my fabulous Facebook friends snatched 'em up), but the round ornament is still available to purchase as of right now and also the two birds on canvas at the end of this post will be available after the workshop I'm teaching next week. The first pic is a commission painting in progress. And now for the pics... 20130118-181248.jpg

20130118-181816.jpg Whew! Sorry for the image heavy post, but there was a lot of catching up to do. The last pic was a sketch I did this week while sketching at a a coffeeshop with a new artist friend. I SO have to do that more often! I had been stuck on a couple of paintings, but when I returned to the studio everything just "clicked".

Won't be able to get back to the studio 'til Tuesday since the kiddo doesn't have school on Monday. So it's a nice long weekend for us! I plan to start back posting here at least once a week (usually with new paintings for sale since I am now getting regular dedicated focused studio time each week) , so I hope you'll stop by regularly. :)  And be sure to keep a check on my online store for new prints I'll be adding this coming week. xoxo

I'm participating in Paint Party Friday this week :)
