Well, today I have completed 32 paintings!~! Since my first post! A little less than I had planned, but I can see a difference in my work. Sure I'm not happy with some of them, but as you can see I'm still a student. I think you go through life as a student. I hope I never stop learning. This whole blog thing for me is about the commitment to paint more. All the great painters and teachers say you must paint a 100 paintings, before you can even begin to understand the process. I am a true believer!!
I'm still working on paintings for the Lancaster Art Walk, July 20th, I some how got in two places. It's a long story! But as it may be, I need double the paintings! I will be at WC Grinders on South Columbus St. and ADMAH at Main and Broad.
Cherries Squared - Day 11
12" x 12" Oil on Canvas SOLD The challenge today was to paint RED ! How many reds in the paint world are there! Well I think a lot!!!!! I had at least 6 tubes out ........the transparent of the skin was the hardest to get.....I love the yummy reds against the cools of the table cloth. I added a little light green, but it didn't show up in the photograph. This painting is much better than the picture.... you can't see the impressionist colors juxtapose together. Anyone doing the challenge can't help but get better......what fun! Thanks Leslie!
