So excited!!!! This painting just sold to a wonderful couple that saw it at the Malibu Arts Festival.  This one has been almost sold a couple of times.  People just love the whimsy and playfulness of this painting.  It's one of my cookie cutter paintings.  There I go again mixing elements to create something new and original.  LOL.  I added the quote about innovation to it because I thought it was perfect to put on one of these paintings.

It all started when I was playing around with abstract painting and I thought it would be fun to introduce very graphic elements into the painting as a contrast.  This thought was pin balling around in my head when I was at the amazing cooking store, "Sur La Table", and I spotted the cookie cutters (light bulb!).  I knew at that moment I had to incorporate them into my paintings.  Not only did I get the contract between the organic abstract painting but I also got dimension.  The paintings have a wonderful relief quality to them.  It was a marriage made in heaven.

Since this innovation I have sold many of these composition.  People love them.  I just started adding quotes to my artwork in Photoshop to post on Facebook and other social media sites.  I have to say that this has been one of my all time favorite unexpected mashup of elements.  To see more of these innovative works of art please go to my website:  http://www.scottlindnerart.com and click on albums.

You never know where inspiration will come from and where it will hit you!
