April 22 2010 Earth Day



One of the most difficult aspects of blogging is finding words to say about each piece. Today is a beautiful Spring day. It is sunny and the temperature is perfect with a slight breeze. As I was sitting in my studio looking out of the patio doors toward the water this is what I saw. I couldn't get to my paint brushes quickly enough!! I haven't painted many landscapes and so my tries are largely with little training. Having said that, it was really a good thing. I enjoyed the elements and the wonderful sun filled colors.

Brushstrokes and colors are really great! Very painterly. It's a wonderful painting!

Love the greens in this one. Are you what they call a "colorist"? I never understand all those terms that are supposed to define painters.

Hi Linda, your colors are wonderful. I was out painting today too. It's always good to get out and paint!
Linda, you should paint more landscapes, (or Seascapes), this one is wonderful. All the best.

It's wonderful. I just love how loose and easy you make it seem. Sometimes the paintings are borderline abstract and I so appreciate that. Lovely.

I am enjoying landscape painting so much.  It is partly because the Finetec waterolors that I use.  They are so incredibly beautiful....ssooooo beautiful.....each stroke is a stroke of LOVE....... www.lindahuntfineart.com

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)
