3 STEPS

HUMAROCK CHARM  40x33


Thought it might be interesting to show my process. After applying gesso and then sanding the tacked up raw canvas. I plunk in darks and establish my composition. Then build up my colors and values. I think I am finished..but am always open to any tips.

WORKSHOP

6 hardy souls painted on Day 1 of the workshop out at The Glades in Scituate MA. It was raining, cold and windy.....High Drama. Thank goodness we had a house with fantastic views  to duck into. Sometimes the worst conditions give us the most rewarding results. Everyone was pleased with the progress of their work.

HOT SUMMER DAY

Love this hot summer weather. This is a larger painting of the river tributary..I painted the smaller one on a cloudy day at very low tide. I experimented  with the temperature, colors and drawing on this one...really flung the paint around and had a ball
