I've been working on a series of mini square paintings, so fun! For more about my process, see my blog post about it -- link in profile. #carafosterkarim #papercollage #paintingwithpaper #squareart #newspapercollage #contemporaryart #somervilleartist #somervillemass #somervilleart #somervilleopenstudios #artistsonig #artistoninstagram

More water, more sky... #workinprogress #sneakpeek #blue #carafosterkarim #paintingwithpaper #papercollage #bridge #dublin #landscape #cityscape #somervilleartist #artistsonig #artistoninstagram

Two small things I've been working on today. These are both painted (papered, really) over previous paintings that had stalled out and weren't going anywhere. I get a burst of freedom and exhilaration from scrapping something "failed" and turning it into something new and awesome. The time and love I put into the old version is still there adding more depth, even when you can't see it. It isn't wasted! #carafosterkarim #artistsonig #artistoninstagram #abstractart #contemporaryart #somervillema #somervilleart #somervilleartist #paintingwithpaper #papercollageart #newspaperart #art #artist

Something different that I've been working on this week! #sneakpeek #workinprogress #abstractart #contemporaryart #newspapercollage #carafosterkarim #somervilleartist #artistoninstagram

Starting....another bridge!! While listening to Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic. Ķind of fun. This painting is based on a photo I found of a bridge in Dublin; I'm trying to train myself up be more specific with my urban landscapes. I like working from photos, what city should I collage next??? #bridge #dublin #cityscape #urbanlandscape #river #water #sky #brick #newspaper #newspapercollage #immigrantswelcome #buildbridgesnotwalls #artistsonig #artistsoninstagram #somervilleartist #somervilleart #carafosterkarim #workinprogress

Ok now I think it's finally done! I'm really enjoying the reflection on the water, I want to do more cityscapes with water! #bostonskyline #thepru #hancocktower #charlesriver #paintingwithpaper #papercollage #newspapercollage #newspapercollagelandscape #Somervilleart #somervilleartist #boston #bostonartist #carafosterkarim
