Detail from a Painting by Erica Chappuis
I had the great good fortune to be invited to the home of the Detroit artist Erica Chappuis recently. When I drove up her street, I could immediately tell which house was hers by all the wonderful artistic "installations" in the yard. She invited me in and gave me blueberry tea and we had a wonderful long conversation, and then she showed me around her yard, her house and finally her studio. She showed me how to use molding compound to make relief in a painting, and photographed that and hope to present it as a tutorial in a future post.

All my details are horizontal because they fit the blog format better, but many of the paintings are vertical--I need to post some of the whole paintings.
Thanks. :-D
I like meeting artists too :-))
I tried to write to you on FB but the "private" message box is not accessible here for the moment :-))

Hi Mary! I've been away and gone and am trying now to get back on some semblance of a schedule. I've been scrolling down through your posts and see that I've missed many delightful things. I love your photos, always, but your paintings are very special!
Hope that all is well with you and yours!
