Trying new ways to do Still Life paintings. Sometimes you have to just let go and let a new technique take over. Not sure if I went over board on this or not but it kept me busy for quite a while today. I'll see where stronger colors take me.
I thought I had left a comment, Blanche. This painting is one I like for several reasons. The outlines coming and going adds a punch, the colors are great and best of all is the conversation going between the direction of the stalks. Love it!
I was born and raised in Pittsburgh (home of the Steelers) and came to the Northwest in 1978. I've been fortunate to travel extensively throughout the world with my sketch book, pen and ink and watercolors. That's easiest for me going through security and customs. When at home my medium of choice is oil and pastel. I love plein air and also working in my little studio. A little jazz or classical music and a paint brush, well, it doesn't get much better.
I've taught two wonderful workshops, one in Oahu, Hawaii and the other in El Dorado National Forest. My art class at Kaewyn Gallery in Bothell, WA was a delight however a brief episode with breast cancer temporarily interfered. I'm back, good as new.
I've been accepted in Juried Shows as well as Invitationals and will continue to always strive for that next level.
