OIL PAINTING OF BOATS AT FISHERMAN'S WHARF IN PROGRESS

11 X 14 OIL ON CANVAS SOLD

Not quiet finished with this one....near tho. Fisherman's Wharf  is full of great boat scenes to paint.  You would think I would pick something simpler to warm up after not painting for 8 days... the longest  time in three years!

Since I got back there has been one ordeal after another to deal with... besides the catch-up things.   Taking a vacation  seems to be more work than it's worth.  Next time I may just check in to a beach side condo here  in Gulf Shores.

This gentleman was enjoying an outdoor cafe at Fisherman's Wharf in Monterrey.  Carmel and Monterrey are full of beautiful scenery and friendly people.  Oh, and lets don't forget the fabulous art and food!  The paintings at the American Impressionist Society Show were stunning. 

Also my oil and acrylic portrait and figure painting workshop starts next week and I still have a couple openings.  Hard to believe it is almost November!

PASTEL PAINTING OF BOATS ON BLUE WATERS

PASTEL BOATS ON BLUE WATERS

8 X 10 PASTEL ON CANSON PAPER

This is my 3rd pastel painting and I miss the magic of my rich creamy oils!!  I have about decided against taking pastels to Carmel. for the paint-out.  Maybe I will buy some oil paints there or just take a much needed vacation and forget the painting.  I do plan on taking tons of photos for new reference material.  I will probably not post for a week but please come back to see me.  Even tho, I don't always reply to comments,  I so appreciate your input. By the time I get thru painting and posting each day this senior citizen is totally exhausted..  .I did find out that my thyroid is not functioning right so hoping the meds will help there.

PASTEL PAINTING OF WOMAN AND CHILD AT THE BEACH

10 X 8 PASTEL ON CANSON PAPER

 It has been several years since I painted with pastels and it is not an easy transition from oil painting.

I had planned to take them to Carmel next week to use at the paint out the American Impressionist Society is hosting at Fisherman's Wharf.    This went a little more quickly than the first one I painted on a very rough sanded paper.

GOING BANANAS

5 X 7 OIL ON PANEL SOLD

I like the fresh color in this little still life with bananas.  I kept the painting simple using broad strokes of clean color.  And yes I am going bananas, looking for new things to paint, trying to decide what to take to Carmel for the American Impressionist Show etc etc.   I think I am going to take pastels to use on the paint-out as I don't want to deal with transporting wet oils and getting them through airport security.

PEPPER PARTY WORKSHOP DEMO IN PROGRESS

11 X 14 OIL ON CANVAS

This oil painting is a 40 minute demo I did for my  still life workshop today.  I  wanted to emphasize the importance of  keeping the painting loose and designing the canvas,  concentrating on the big shapes.  I plan to carry it just a little further and hopefully not destroy the spontaneity.

POSY OF ZINNIAS WITH PEPPER

7 X 5 OIL ON PANEL SOLD

 This miniature oil floral took more time to do than some of the larger ones.  Seems I am always thinking just a few more brush strokes to perfection.  One has to  remember that it also just a few more brush stokes to lose the freshness!

PURPLE BOAT AND FRIENDS

12 X 12 ON WOOD PANEL

 Painting this oil  seascape of colorful boats kept me busy during tropical storm Lee.  I actually had a purple boat for a while but it has long  gone to boat heaven.

For those of you inquiring about painting workshops,   I have one starting Friday September 17th in Foley, Alabama.   I think there are still some openings.   Also, I added a new one In Fairhope, Alabama .  Look on the upper right side column of  my blog to see the dates.
