Quiet Moment



This is a redo of one of the paintings that I did last month. I am much happier with it. It pays to give a little time and space with a painting to make sure that it truly is complete!

Spontineity is wonderful but there is something to be said for the...pause...the time that you take to really step back... evaluate... live with it for a while... return and evaluate again. It is difficult for me to do because I get so excited to post!

Hi Linda.
I posted a comment for this one about Three days ago, but you haven`t accepted it. I hope everything is okay linda. I did say that this painting is brilliant and the subject is unusual for you. All the best Linda.
Vic.

Hi Vic, I never got the comment from several days ago...don't know what could have happened. I try to answer every comment that I get. Thank you! This is a series of paintings that I will be doing based on my travels to the Cincinnati 'conservatory--greenhouse'. I was an abstract expressionist painter for many years and feel that this painting and others that I am working on are merging what I have learned from painting more realistically with the expressionism. I am very excited about this, kind of, new direction. I also like working larger. These canvases are 20"X20".

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
