Berries

I know that you are not supposed to resurrect a painting, but I was partial to elements of the painting and felt that it would be a good learning tool. I needed to establish a better Notan and create a strong structure. I went back in and really worked this painting. Deepening the darks was the fun part. Gosh it gook me a long time to learn how to avoid white and work with color. But, I am pleased with this painting now and feel that I learned a great deal.  For some reason I am not getting the best photo on this image. There is a lot of glare...I will need to try again.

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)
