Alas, I am retiring this page as I reorganize my social media life again. I used to do a brisk business with my art on FB—literally had often sold a piece within a minute of posting it—but it’s been dead here. Don’t know what my plans are at this point beyond this one decision yet… Thanks to all.

Jennifer Packer’s tender portraits of friends veer between mark-making and stunning specificity. Even if their faces were blurred, even if they melted into their monochrome surrounds, they were fully and lovingly rendered.
Jennifer Packer Confronts Grief Through Paintings That Cut Deep
The painter mines an iconographical language of grief through delicate, translucent paintings imbued with a sense of intimacy and intensity.

After Otto Dix. Model Emily Metalskin. Thinking this is 9x12, and probably I painted it during the early part of this pandemic we’re in.
Person with monocle sits craning to look at the camera while seated at small bar table. Martini, cigs, matches. Tones of pink and green.

How do you feel about your mommy? I had an extremely contentious rel’t with mine. Anyhow, this quick sketch was from a pic I took of her when she turned 40. I’d just turned 17 and was already snap-happy.

After Van Gogh, tricky, time-consuming, made me ask myself how he managed a canvas a day. Talent and skill, of course, having no kids, but how else? I’ve never really known if I believe he was mentally ill.

I loved the time at the beginning of the pandemic when artists would build their online sessions in homages to famous painters. This little sketch, which I think is on paper, 9x12”, is from a Tamara de Lempicka session.

She looks so sad, don’t you think? I often think of her life as this sad, I must admit. I went to her house once in Montmartre, only to find its art emphasis completely male, incl featuring her son. She had a little wall to the side mostly of her sketches.
Based on a Valadon self-portrait.

Sometimes it’s fun to take on a glum photograph from more than 100 years ago. The mother here was a sister to my great-grandmother, and the children my grandmother’s cousins.

Photography, done the traditional way. White woman photographer wearing a red shirt, a scarf, and turquoise pedal pushers, leans contemplatively on finned green car. Near brick wall, blue sky in bkgd.

What do you think when you gaze at yourself in a mirror? Are you critical of what you see? After Suzanne Valadon. White woman holding black and white blanket up stares at her refection in a black-framed full-length mirror. Greenery and red curtain to the side. 9x11 acrylic on acrylic paper.

Sunday; not sure how that happened!
I always imagined this large board (30x40”) as an underwater or beside a pond image. What do you think?

Another in the autistic masking series. I believe in covid masking, too, and I believe there’s a painting here that shows that in 1918. But autistic masks are metaphorical. What would they look like if we could see them?

Do you have an obasan or granny who looks like this? Would she sit you down with a bowl of food, or is she another type of person? Mine was the second. Although she may have been warm to my siblings, she never was to me.

If you want the very best oil sticks, choose PauldeMarrais.com. Buttery, custom colour orders welcome. Get small or ask for large. I’ve been getting mine here for years after being disgruntled by all the commercially avail ones. Not getting paid to say this.
