It's a June Gloom morning here in SoCal...nothing scattered flowers can't fix! "Summer Breeze" is a piece created using one canvas as my "wingman" to clean off my brush and add extra papers to...and then it magically became a triptych!
I talk about wingman canvases in my ARTicles this week...and this piece is available in my Flowers portfolio...both on my website...take a look and enjoy the day!
While you're there...sign up for my newsletters to see what I'm up to in the studio.

New post in my ARTicles this morning...all about waiting a "wingman" along side your paintings...to clean your brush, use up excess paint...and create a whole new painting. Check it out https://www.denisecerro.com/post/your-art-studio-needs-a-wingman
This piece, "Enjoyed 1&2" are an example of that...and will be hanging in the Fine Art Exhibition at the San Diego Fair June through July 4th. Make sure to go and see all the wonderful art...and eat some bad fair food!🤩😋

A new (old) painting and my latest ARTicle on Art Do-Overs...take a peek...and make it a great day!🌠

As artists, many of us know the daringness of painting over one of our own paintings, and the delight of something new showing up... hopefully something we love.

Sunday morning...ideas for you to title your artwork...without using AI! Enjoy the day friends!☀️

An artwork’s title is often the viewer’s first connection to your art piece. It can create emotion, spark curiosity, provide context, or guide interpretation without explaining too much.

Sunday ARTicle...enjoy the read...enjoy the day!☀️

When I first started painting, I thought I needed to use all the colors to make a piece interesting. I’d see artists online...
