My 2018 Best Nine. Interesting to see this and it's always a surprise to see what gets the most likes. Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays! Thanks for being a part of my life!😘❤️🙏
Today I waved farewell to this painting. My last of 2018. A special commissioned piece for a friend I've known a while now. May they enjoy it in good health for many years to come. Fitting for this time of year, I feel, that it named itself "Wonders of Love." Imagine if we could all accept a way of Love....radical Love. Sounds familiar, no? A reason for the season, perhaps. 💙 Winter and Holiday Love to you all. May your time with family and friends be love and wonder filled.🙏💙😘 #darjames #contemporaryart #tree #wallart #sofa #blues #wonder #love
She found her forever home today. An early morning call for a last minute holiday gift. "The Realm of the Sacred" will ship off to a woodland home in NC where she will be well loved and looked at each day. ❤️ #darjames #treeoflife #sacred #tree #sunrise #contemporaryart #vibrantcolors #red #namaste
"The Seeds of Smiles," original acrylic on canvas. From my Splashscapes series that I've recently returned to. Layers and layers of playful and vibrant acrylic splash. This one is infused throughout with iridescence. On display at the charming @redfoxartgallery in Bedford, NY along with an exhibit of other gorgeous abstract work. #darjames #contemporaryart #drippainting #splash #vibrantcolors #abstractpainting #bedfordny #redfoxgallery
