I worked more on the interior that I painted over a month ago and am beginning to like it very much. I may have a ways to go...but this is a good start.
This painting has seen many revisions and I think that I am now satisfied. I am still using the 3 color palette...but to vary the reds I used Quinacridone Red. I like the true reds and the darker reds that I could get. I also used a bit of Permanent Green Light to get a true green. Those are two of the colors that I have the most trouble getting exactly what I want. Maybe I am just not mixing correctly.
I love the roses in this painting....they are a luscious color. Still using the 3 color palette and becoming more comfortable with it each time I paint. This was a still life that I painted from life. This little oil painting is 10"x 8" on a stretched cotton canvas. When dry it will be for sale in my Etsy shop.
I felt that working more on this painting seemed like a good idea. I used the 3 color palette with the addition of Quinacridone Magenta which allows me to achieve the red violets and blue violets that I like so much.
This is a commission that is long overdue. I used the 8"x 6" gessobord as a support. I also used the 3 color palette that I have been working with and just love it......I love Molly's ears and her sweet face. I also worked on edges after reading the FB post today. This was shot from my phone and I will reshoot tomorrow with my camera.
