Here are the rest of the encaustic horseshoe paintings.  These are all the 5″ x 7″ ones.  They are mounted on 9″ x 12″ chalkboard painted masonite.  I will be installing them at Syracuse Yoga sometime next week!

They were a lot of fun to make!  It is a series of twelve.  They were created on a product called Ampersand hardwood, which is available in a lot of different sizes.  Since I prefer working in dozens, I will need to order them – Commercial Art Supply in town cannot keep them in stock.  I had to drive to Rochester, New York to get enough to do the series.

I did not use the Monopoly money this time.  Instead I experimented with text, adding a variety of letters including old typewriter keys and Scrabble pieces.  The O in love is the top hat from the Monopoly set.  It has now been completely harvested for its parts.  I love a good game piece! <3
