                       Painting the last post with the Zorn palette.

Saturday Roses

                                                                      12x16  oil

                          Had a rose ref for this Saturdays paint along.

Corner flowers

                                                                       18x24  oil

                Some flowers in the corner of mom's yard. I think the morning fog is not the best back drop to show off the blooms, because they don't pop out.

Taking 5

                                                              18x24 oil

                     Saw this cow taking a rest one day a while ago in New Hampshire.  I'm thinking her friends are a little sketchy.

Umber monochrome

                                                                            8x10 oil

                              Using just umber and white.  Working on those values.

apple and leaves

                                                                      6x6 oil

                                Shadow on apple and some leaves.

Bag and apple

                                                               6x6 oil

                         A skinny bag and an apple.

Harleys' Caitlin

                                                                   12x16 oil

                        Harley Brown said to do a version of Caitlin. So I gave it a go. I had the drawing off, t and the correction went off the canvas to the board. so i just blended out the hard edge there at the top. Just a practice piece.

Pino copy

                                                                            18x24 oil

            I thought I would copy a Pino. I liked the way he abstracts fabric and of course I picked and image with more skin than fabric. But it was a major challenge for me, with it's top lighting. I spent six hours on this.
