throughout the year, artists at Spindleworks get commissioned to do certain works. There have been large wooden screens painted, curtains woven, and superhero sculptures created. Indeed the spindleworks artists are well known in the Maine community! This spring Diane got a commission to do a LARGE painting, bigger than anything she had done before (other than her 4 panel wooden screen). The interested customer had seen her work on the Berenberg Gallery website and hoped to purchase something really BIG of hers, so Jonathan built her a 3 x 4 foot canvas! working from a smaller sketch, Diane transfered the idea to the canvas, first in pencil, then oil pastel, and finally acrylic. Voila!
