Contemplation



I have been desiring to paint the figure again. This is a photograph that my husband took of me on my deck. I liked the foreshortening, perspective, and color of this image.

I like this very much, Linda. I don't know how, but as soon as it came up on my screen, I knew it was you!

It's awesome!

Linda, Nice to meet you (in cyber space). Just wanted to introduce myself and thank you for following my blog. I love that your work has that abstract quality, and the color, wonderful. Very inspiring.

Very good! I imagine this would have been terribly tricky with all the perspective issues and a human figure to boot. You pulled it off well! Brave of you! : )

Wow,wow,wow. You make this look so easy! It has a wonderful dynamic quality that is so unique. I love all the complimentary patterns and they way you handled everything so "equally..." This is the sort of painting one could actually live with for a long time! Brilliant.

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

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)
