Rose at Dawn

I am learning how to use paint.net and hope that I am understanding...anyway this is an painting that I painted today....love what I am learning!!  I also bought bristle brushes which make a big difference in how the paint handles.  There are places and reasons to use synthetic brushes...they make a very chiseled application of paint whereas a bristle brush is soft and gives a soft diffused edge.

What is paint.net? I am interested in doing more with painting and everything. I currently don't have a lot of time right now because I just had my daughter in January and she is my number one priority. But once I am able to find a little free time for me. I would like to take more time for some of my hobbies.

Hi Beauty Ink,
Thanks for stopping by....congratulations on your new little gal!!!
Paint.net is a program that is free in which you can crop your paintings, do all kinds of fun things .... it is easy but since I am not very savvy with the computer it takes me a little time.
Check it out on youtube also...
Good luck when you have the time when your little one gets a little older!! Stay in touch!!

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)
