7" x 7" Oil on Board
I set up this still life from my inspiration of Carol Marine, another blog artist. I have been watching her progess for a couple of months. She does nothing but small still lifes.
After a great trip North to South Carolina, DC and Boston, we made it back to the Sunshine State! Everyone thinks it hot here, well it's hotter in SC and DC. Plus they don't have that wonderful ocean breeze. We had many adventures, plus a few internet problems.... I forgot how slow slow can be! Our Summer Series is on Week 5 with the Octopus....you can see the video on my youtube channel. We will finish the series next week with the Seahorse. I hope you've enjoyed the projects. I plan on incorporating the new colors; Lemon Yellow or Permanent Yellow, Cadmium Red, Permanent Rose or Quinacridone Red, Cobalt Violet, Manganese Blue or Cerulean Blue. I finally decided after 30 years of the normal palette (Burnt Sienna, Gamboge, Hooker's Green Dark, Ultramarine Blue, Indigo, Alizarin Crimson and White Gouache) it was time for a CHANGE! Happy Painting!
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!
Started my new year off really great.....fell on the ice after watching Ohio State win the Rose Bowl.....broke my leg in two places!!! #@$%^!@### (stone sober, it would make it go down better if I had had a few) We had to delay our trip back to Florida....hope to get down there in the next couple of weeks........
