Tulips from Another Artist

Process photos of Saturday night session. In full disclosure, I spotted this composition in another artists work. It looked compelling and challenging, so I tried a similar arrangement. I’ld Like to try it again. I bought clay boards by accident. The surface absorbed the paint quickly so oil paint didn’t work the way it normally does. Saturday errands almost road blocked my studio time tonight. I managed to get out here to prep boards with Alex and Patrick around 6:30pm, then started dinner. I came out again around 8:30. Wrapped up around midnight.

Friday Night Spotlight on short stack of tulips

Bruins playoff game tested my commitment to painting 2 x per week. But I cranked up the tunes and kept my promise to myself. Bruins lost 2-1.

In Studio- After hours

Staying committed to the twice a week in studio practice- last night I worked big and I worked small. I prepped boards and I fine tuned.

Another transition

Gerber daisies in a glass

In the spirit of daily painting, I headed into the studio tonight. Also worked on the large landscape. I was feeling it tonight working on the large piece. It’s almost done.

Summer Evening Marsh

Been working on this one for a while. It took on another transition today. I don’t think it’s done but it’s closer. Summer evening marsh (from a plein air study)
