Don't worry if I don't respond right away, as our Internet is down at home (I'm having withdrawal) and I'm writing from our local McDonalds. (No TV either, which means no CNN in the background while I paint.)

This is what happens to lemon paintings that don't turn out well, or earn their keep by selling.
Bad lemons! December 15. (or maybe the painter wasn't quite on the ball...)

We had a very long class (8 hours) yesterday (my paint-along with Johannes Vloothuis) and out of the three paintings Joe did, I was only able to complete one, the fall landscape. Today I revised the winter light piece, (thicker tree trunks, more barkiness) and I am offering the two at "best offer" prices. Please send an email to NelVanL@aol.com if you are interested in making an offer on either one. Please don't forget that I'll add $7 shipping to the smaller one, and $12 shipping to the larger one.

Winter Light
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 20"
SOLD.

This was our painting (mine is somewhat altered from the class painting) for this past Saturday, but because my little granddaughter, Kayla, was here visiting, I only got a couple of hours of painting in. Then used the video and finished it up yesterday and today, several hours each day. Don't you love the colors?

I do plan on doing it again, and now that I know where I'm going, I think I'll have even more success.

I participated in our online class yesterday with Johannes Vloothuis ,which is a 6 hour paint-along, and although he was doing his church in watercolor, I picked up a lot of good information for oils as well. Isn't this charming? Thanks for looking.

This one started out as a fall (acrylic) demo in class, but we didn't complete it. So today, so as not to waste the canvas, I finished it in oils. I left little tiny bits of the underpainting showing through, a nice effect. Click to see it larger.

The composition is a little different for me, I like it.
