Starting to add some colour |
As an 'emerging' artist I am always interested in learning new things and trying to improve my art. I was looking up a residency program in Cypress Hills, Saskatchewan when I came across the following:
"Have you always wanted the intensity of a day or 2 (or 3) in a large earthen hole with one other person?
In the Hole is a short-term residency located in an earthen hole on Treaty 6 territory in rural Saskatchewan, Canada. Each resident will spend 6 hours each day in this hole as a participant in this residency. Residents can come for one day up to a maximum of 3 consecutive days. There will be one person at a time at the Residency.Have you always wanted the intensity of a day or 2 (or 3) in a large earthen hole with one other person?"
You can check it out yourself by clicking residency in a hole. I admit I did laugh, thinking that this was a joke and I pictured a camera being set up to take pictures of whatever unsuspecting sucker came along who actually took it seriously. Trying not to judge.
Anyhow..back to the ongoing struggle. I am working on the larger version now of my smaller study of Cypress Hills. Trying to use lots more paint and make it more 'impressionist' in style. I found the beautiful paintings of Erin Hanson to inspire me. We shall see if this larger one turns out.
