First attempt at bringing back to life my mardi gras people from watercolors to acrylic. I'm hoping they'll help me loosen up with the strokes. Having some fun. #colleenshannon #neworleans #colleenshannonart #mardigras #jacksonsquare

Stocking up on canvas sale! First five people to order me 2 rolls of canvas ($107.98 insane!) get a nice size gator painted on flat canvas. 18 x 54" Acrylic on canvas. Only two takers left!

Reclining male nude. 5 x 7 ink and watercolor on archival paper. And then! There's the shear madness of this. I love energy, freeness, and random colors. You tell me. Which is your fave? #colleenshannonart #figuredrawing #neworleans #neworleansartcenter #colleenshannon

Blue male nude. 5 x 7 ink and watercolor on archival paper. I'll take a better photo in daylight. I typically go back into these gesture drawings, but the pure simplicity of this is begging me to leave it alone. I may try to replicate this on another paper and go back into that. #figuredrawing #neworleans #colleenshannon #colleenshannonart #neworleansartcenter

Male nude. 5 x 7 Ink and watercolor on archival paper. Had a male nude for figure drawing and I'm torn between a few. This might be my fave for the night, but I'll show a couple more and you can tell me. The simplicity of color and line in this one is one calls to me. #eyejazz #neworleansartcenter ##colleenshannonart #colleenshannon #neworleans #figuredrawing

My view for four days. From my sketch book. Not for sale. This is actually three times as long, but instagram is cutting it off. Quick gestures of person after person as they walk past me. #jacksonsquare #neworleans #colleenshannonart #colleenshannon #frenchquarter #frenchquarterfest

People Gathering at my wall space. From my sketch book. Not for sale. Seemed like my shady spot under the tree was a great gathering point for people not necessarily looking for art. I wanted to shoo them, so started sketching them instead. #frenchquarterfest #jacksonsquare #frenchquarter #colleenshannon #colleenshannonart #neworleans #jacksonsquare

Woof. I've been a mad woman painting in acrylics. Painting and showing in Jackson Square has been a learning experience in so many ways. #eyejazz #neworleans #colleenshannon #colleenshannonart #jacksonsquare #frenchquarter #frenchquarterfestival
