EVolution of a painting
A special presentation by Marjorie Ball

Evolution of a painting 2019

Before the beginning:
​
As artists change and learn things about art and themselves, their paintings change.  No matter how one thinks a painting is finished, one often makes changes- sometimes years later.  In like manner, several versions of an idea may evolve on the same canvas!

Margorie Ball will begin a new work during our November 5, 2019 meeting and provide an image of it for our this dedicated web page.  Then, as she continues to work back in her studio, she will allow us to post later images, demonstrating the evolution of the work.

​The beginning:
​It was a great presentation as we began the evolution!  Margie brought us into her process as she begins and moves through a painting.  ​To read Margie's thoughts click on an image.  Not all images have notes. ENJOY!

​As we conclude this journey with Margie, what an honor and priveledge to have had this unique opportunity to see the transitions of Margie's painting process from beginning to end.




from Margie:
I hope it is helpful to see the back and forth I go through.  Sometimes even after I’ve finished a painting, and it's sat around for a while, it beckons to me to scrape something out or paint over.



The final painting.
