Cottage, Acrylics - SOLD

Cottage, Acrylics
Acrylics on Canvas Panel, 9" x 12"
SOLD.

This is what we did on Thursday, me and my private student. I wanted to see if I could do a textured painting in acrylics, and while the coverage isn't as good as with the oils, (click on the image to enlarge) you can still get some of the subtle color shifts. Since the acrylics dry so quickly, there isn't as much chance to blend one color into another. However, since my student enjoyed the technique, I'll probably teach it to my class on Wednesday.

Sky Colors - SOLD

Sky Colors
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 9" x 12"
SOLD.

I wanted a simple landscape this afternoon, and played with the sky.
Phthalo Blue makes a good sunset/sunrise turquoise color for sky, I'm finding. I haven't used it much, since it's a really intense blue, but now I will.

Crocuses - SOLD

A close up view of croci or crocuses, one of my favorite little harbingers of Spring.
In Maryland, Spring is still flirting with us, as there are some warm days, but still some winterish ones too.

Landscape Sketch, Pines and Path - SOLD

SOLD.

This was fun. After doing a larger, more painstaking piece with tulips, this was a nice change of pace.
Swish, swish, dabble, dabble. Got a little landscape.

Filtered Sunlight, Woods - SOLD

Filtered Sunlight, Woods
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12"
SOLD.

I've posted this one before, and it didn't sell. I looked at it this morning, to revise it and repost, but decided that I like it just as it is. No revisions. I'll simply drop the price and we'll see what happens.

Meanwhile, I'm working on gallery paintings for Spring.
Thanks for looking.

Blush Tulips - SOLD

Blush Tulips
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 10" x 10"
SOLD.

I wanted to see if I could do justice to really pale pink tulips. I think they turned out nicely, but a little graphic looking. Like they should have had more "modeling." Yes? But still a sweet touch for a corner somewhere.

Wildflowers - SOLD

A quick oil sketch today, while I'm working on gallery paintings for Spring.
