“Briquettes” is Art You love by Elizabeth Traub.
This past week I took my favorite colors and each day added another colored layer. One thing a finished piece never shows is the mistakes that have been covered. That is what is brilliant with paint. You can cover a multitude of mistakes.
I get this idea of what I want to paint in my head and what I want the finished piece to look like. On this piece I was exploring the freedom I have with a sponge, a brush and a paper towel. I could see these colors layed out in loose shapes. I believe this is a gift that made me a successful interior designer. The ability to see the finished piece in my mind. As I was laying out a design for my clients I could always see the finished room in my head and be excited for what I could see and they could not. My clients trusted me with the process from start to finish.
Gordon was bbq’ing on my last day of painting this piece. As I was finishing up I thought it would be cool if briquettes were colored. When I stood back at the final stroke. I giggled out loud. I giggled over the name this piece would take on. I thought of calling it, “Colored Briquettes” but I actually just love the one word. The rest is easy to figure out.

This piece is available in various sizes. Please note that the digital picture is as close to the colors as the original. There will always be a slight variation.
Each print is a beautiful Gallery Wrapped Canvas with attached sawtooth hook ready to hang. I have a number of frame options which we can discuss at time of order.
