Wayne Thiebaud

Yesterday was a light day in book arts. We did some prep work for next week and I did another coptic binding. This time it was with four needles instead of two, like this one.






In mixed media today we went on a field trip to the San Jose Museum of Art to look at the Wayne Thiebaud exhibit.


These are the pictures I was able to take before the guy told me to put my camera away. It was amazing to see his work in person. His strokes are so thick and confident. Don't get me started on the color! It's amazing how vibrant his choices are. One of the paintings he started in 1983 and finished it this year. It was a great day.
