Second Session- Warrior I

 

Warrior I

 I think about 7 hours went into the gouache study and I think it’s finally resolved. The grisaille is a new oil I started tonight on the same subject. 

Gouache on 140lb Arches

 I love these value studies

Studio Work

 Starting paintings is more fun for me than finishing them- I feel like I could tweak them forever. How do you know when you hit that last note?

I feel like I can put this one to rest for now.

Under The Footbridge Again

 I still need to work on the dock. This was my second session with this one (3hrs). Building color and adjusting values. I think they are a happy pair. How I would love to place my feet on that warm fiberglass surface! 

Second Session Under the Surface

2nd session with this large under water figure.  5hrs tonight- 2 hours on Wednesday. I might have another session. 
 

Under the Surface

 The rare opportunity to paint during the day- (home from school with a headache- waiting for covid results) I started a new under water painting. It’s 24 x 36

Swimmers, boats, and yoga poses- I’m slightly all over the place. I’m excited to dive more into this one. Right now it is in grisaille form.
