"Zest is Life Blood" ©Mary Montague Sikes |
Today's painting is experimental. I love to experiment with art. Years ago, I created work using scraps of colored Plexiglas embedded in Celluclay (instant papier mache). It was fun and created dialog. I enjoyed the sculptural quality of the work.
"Zest is Life Blood" is cold wax and oil on two-inch thick Styrofoam that is 18" x 18". (I couldn't resist using this material when it was given to me.) Once again, I see a lot in this piece of art. It overflows with zest, enthusiasm, and passion. Life blood is the basis for this painting. Images lurk throughout.
What are your feelings? Should last be first?
Which pieces of my art do you like best? Which materials?

The elements together look like giant brushstrokes.
Well done of finishing the Challenge.
Hi Monti - you are so clever with your art ... I know so little - yet am ready to learn ... zest as life-blood ... that will take some thinking about ... take care and congratulations on achieving all the A-Zs - Hilary
The colour red is of blood but blood brings life, passion and, yes, zest! Great end to your beautiful A to Z and enjoyed each piece
