I don’t have as any paintings as in the past, although I don’t think I did any last year.
Here’s the one from the homework assignment from the latest session of Kat’s painting class.
I’ve still been working on copying paintings and one of the things I’ve been doing is copying some citrus paintings of Elena Katsyura. She is on the web and Daily Paintworks. I love the glow she gets. I believe she is working in oil. Given that and the limited palette, I am not getting that, but it’s been a fun exploration. Here are two from life.
The last thing to share is a quick drawing with my beloved Neocolor II crayons. This is not for Art 4 Shelter. I just wanted to do something this morning and didn’t have much time.
The ground is from a mixture of color and pastel ground thinned with a bit of water. It was a 15 minute or so quick study using one of the above pieces. It was fun, since I haven’t had the Neo IIs out for a long time. I am getting a knee replacement in a few weeks and wanted to have some easily accessible art materials to use as a I recover.
