Exciting to be a member..

more 6 x 6 truck,Cows and House sold at Gallery4

Running out of subject matter.. looked thru old sketches that i have used for paintings (i am a sketchy  hoarder)..  these were really fun.. used minimum am't of colors..   cobalt, perm rose, sienna and white.  this photo is dull..    not sure if i should glaze them..  must ponder that.   Purple cow one Sold right b/4 Christmas.  

6"x 6" Delights

   Enjoyed painting these gems. i painted the canvases solid colors first.  For the truck one, I sprayed the damp paint with H2O and then rolled toilet paper over..  i know, toilet paper is not an art supply item but it is in my studio.
    I usually don't "do" flowers but this was fun. I have a lot of photos i've taken over the years... lots of years, lots of photos....

I used a photo that was sent by my Oregon hiking family. They were hiking trails on Mount Hood. I painted the canvas purple first and of course wanted to save some of it.  I battled with the trees on the Right side, ugh.  What is happening to me doing out door landscapes all of a sudden???

Gray Panes 8-21 Sold at Gallery4

    Painted this acrylic yesterday.  It was fun as i first painted the canvas Perm Rose, which has a life of it's own.  i used only yocher (what i call yellow ocher), natural grey, cobalt, Umber and of course, white. Oh and Quin Gold, which i love.
 I just want to be able to go shopping and hug the kids. Not in that order, of course.. 
   

Table Rocks & Purple Bridge Quick Sale.. Traded to Grandson, Sam, for tree trimming...

    I painted on this all week, it's my plein air attempt from in my studio, ( i was outside when i took the photo i used for reference, does that count???  )  I really don't like outside much.
     i discovered again how much fun using my palette knife is.  this is acrylic and larger than what i have been doing lately. I used a limited palette and mixed my greens (that sounds like i made a salad--  NOT ).
     Photo was taken in N.Carolina when i attended my nephew's wedding,
    The bridge wasn't purple in real life. 

Gallery 4

Well, i decided to join Gallery 4 as a premiere member.  I hope i can hold up my end of the deal.  It is exciting to hang in the main gallery and have things in the gift shop.  altho with the pandemic going on there aren't a lot of customers. I did sell "Open Toed" while i was hanging my art last week.  Ego boost.. 
Art Lovers beware.   ha.
