  • "Autumn Splendor #2"

    Posted on Thursday January 7th, 2010 at 17:26 in oil, trees, Autumn, palette knife

    My first painting of the new year. Using a canvas with a failed painting, I got out my palette knife and globs of paint and went to work. This is a variation of an earlier painting. It is a great way to use left over paint on my palette. Oil on canva...

    Another of my recent attempts with pastels for portraits. I'm finding that I really enjoy working with skin tones though trying to find just the right shade of pastel can be daunting. The stick visual color is not necessarily what you expect when you...

  • "Morning Mist on the Lake"

    Posted on Monday September 21st, 2009 at 11:58 in oil, water, landscape, lake, morning, mist, 8 x 8

    I tried to capture the mood of the scene of early morning mist using a limited palette of Indigo, Cobalt Blue, Burnt Sienna, Indian Red and White. Working small gives me more freedom to experiment in case the painting doesn't work out. I think I wil...
