What is Tickling Your Creative Fancy? Fragments, Reflections & Art Every Day Month

Posted on the 06 November 2012 by Juliejordanscott @juliejordanscot

It is so interesting to see the directions my art is turning as I am settling into November and Art Every Day month.

Today’s piece is a part of a series I am birthing called “Fragments” – I am taking a large painting I did about two years ago, doing some retexturing, and slicing it into pieces to either collage or hang as is, separate from the rest.

What is seen visually?

If you look here, you see fragments, you see half asked  and half answered questions.


I also see a bit of rain and the sky and perhaps sunset in the desert. I see tears, I see straight and curvy lines. I didn’t want to cut apart my painting at first, but again the intuitive nudge (or should I say tackle) made me do it.

My plan is to hang these separately and together, to offer them to people separately and together, and trust the message will be heard no matter where these pieces land.

This first fragment is tempera on paper mounted on masonite and covered with a light glaze.

Keep watching here for more developments…. I am still working on a piece I started three days ago, too – my house has lots of art-in-process everywhere… thank goodness for a patient family!
