Something my friend Ronda said on Episode 1 of the Adventures in Arting Podcast has stuck with me for the last month or so. She said, "It's self-care, not self-ish."
That quote kept rolling around my brain and finally a picture flashed into my mind. That idea became a sketch on a piece of paper and spawned four different paintings. I'm sharing the two I like the best, though neither one is quite right.
You can see that I went to town with some silver paint and the "Rain" stencil.
I used Tar Gel on the umbrella and, unfortunately, ended up with a ton of bubbles. I also feel like it's too spot on and kind of boring.
I like this one more:
I had a long debate about whether or not to put words on this one and decided against it. I think it was a good choice.
Both of these paintings are on canvas board, an inexpensive and space friendly alternative to a wrapped canvas.
Which one do you like better?
Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. I am going to be on the Cocoa Daisy message board TOMORROW (Friday, October 26) at 6pm EST for a live chat! If you'd like to ask me any questions or just hang out and gab, I hope you'll stop by. I'll be online for at least an hour! :)
Julie, I love the woman better than just the umbrella by itself. It is excellent, and no words are needed for sure.

I have a thing about umbrellas…don’t know why. Both I like, but the woman and umbrella is my favorite. The umbrella shields her heart….it seems to me.

When I was a very poor student a long time ago I had a friend who lost her husband. She worked in a very drab area, in the public service. It was back in a time when Umbrellas were black or grey. I saved and saved to be able to afford a giant sunflower umbrella for her.. I presented it on her birthday.. the next it rained.. she rang me so excited, she had opened up her umbrella.. everyone around her had stopped and looked at how lovely it was.. and the light came streaming through.. and turned golden like a crispy fresh spring day~! I will never forget how excited she was, or how there was that hidden aspect of something extra special that boosted the dreary day into something magnificent, or how much I had saved, just because I knew she needed a little sunshine, or in fact.. how much sunshine it gives me remembering it. The first painting reminds me of that.. and how it feels 🙂 Thank you for sharing them.

I like the woman better. Self care needs to be personified. I like the umbrella protecting her heart. Rhonda’s quote has been resonating with me too only it’s the second half…self care before self destruct. I’ve been down the self destruct path, art is part of my self care to keep me from going down that path again. Thank you for sharing your talent!!

I’m partial to the silver raindrops as I love anything metallic.
p.s. going to pick up some of those canvas boards … been trying to figure out the problem of tiny NYC apartment and painting on canvas. You just solved it for me! Thank you!

Dang, I hate when other people steal my original thoughts and get here first! As someone a couple up said I immediately thought that the tar gel looked like raindrops. As for which I like better, I see them as being very different and like both for different reasons. The simplicity of the umbrella alone reminds me of the kind of framed piece I’d see in a boutique or Christian book store. The one with the woman requires a bit more attention when looking at it, but I see a woman with a warm, cared for heart that may have something to give to others. Okay, so art critic or major I am not! BTW looking forward to your Cocoa Daisy class next month.

Others have mentioned what I first thought also. I love the Tar Gel on the first umbrella. In the picture,it the bubbles look like beaded water. I love this one especially after reading Anna’s story. The second one is very beautiful too. The umbrella does look like it is protecting her heart. Both are wonderful!!!

I can only echo what others have said before. I love the tar gel bubbles. And for whatever reason, I never put people into my art, so I really like the umbrella. I do like your people, just not something I chose for myself. thanks as always for sharing.

I just LOVE the one photo with the umbrella with the rain on it. And Julie, I even loved the tar gel you used on it as well. I know you didn’t like it, but it makes things look like there are actually raindrops on the umbrella. And it really looks like the water is running down underneath where it says self care. I couldn’t believe it! It really looks like real water! You are a genius, and I hope you’ll do a tutorial on how to make thes magickal things!
Love and Blessings,
Peggy
p.s. – When are you going to do some more stencils?

Hmmmm. I like the imagery of the rain in the first one and the larger size of the umbrella . . . but it would feel more complete with a person in the frame, too. If you are ever in the mood to play with it in the future, maybe some way of combining the two ideas??

I love the umbrella alone. Leave off the words, and turn it into cards. I can see a sympathy card, words of encouragement in a tough time…I think it would be a very versatile card!! Can we borrow? LOL

Love the first one. Love everything about it, including the bubbles. The raindrops so perfect, meaningful, just spoke to me. I love it just the way it is, would also like to see a little text background. Not sure about where. Umbrella or maybe in the yellow. Just little thoughts or quotes.
Love your work. Thanks for sharing it.

I came down here to comment that I actually thought you did the tar gel to purposely look like raindrops until I read what you wrote, but apparently I’m not the only one. 🙂 I suppose sometimes we are to close to the piece to recognize the accidental beauty. It does not look like a mistake. It looks like the umbrella has fresh rain on it.

It does not look like a mistake. It looks like the umbrella has fresh rain on it.
I like the way the tar gel made the umbrella look…. it actually appears to have rain drops on it. I don’t know if the camera gives it a slightly different appearence than it actually looks or not. I think that it is one of those experiments that had you set out to give the umbrella the look of rain you would have achieved the final results that you did. It is one of those pleasant surprises.
Both pieces turned out great.

I like them both..I think each one has it’s own story of self care.

Personally, the first one speaks to me more. When I take care of myself – that’s how it feels. I go from rain and dreary to sunshine. I really like that first one!
