Day Twelve 09/12/16 Thirty Paintings in 30 Days

In today's painting I wanted to create some atmosphere of a storm and since I love marshes so well,  I decided to paint a storm on a marsh.

I hope you get the atmospheric
feeling of this one.

Day Eleven 09/11/16 Thirty Paintings in 30 Days

Today's painting was fun and again colorful.  I wanted to brighten the day as it is the Anniversary of the 9-11 tragedy.  I continue to keep those who perished and their families as well as all those who served to help them,  in my thoughts and prayers. Hope this will in some way brighten your day.

Today's painting I actually started a while back, but never quite got it finished.  I thought this would be a good time to complete it. I love marsh scenes. Hope you like this one.

Day Eight 09/08/16 Thirty Paintings in 30 Days

Today's painting is from a picture I took at my husband's hunting camp.  It is so nice and peaceful up there.  He has put in lots of roads and paths and it is a great place to take long walks and of course, hunt.  Hope you like this one.

Day Seven 09/07/16 Thirty Paintings in 30 Days

Today's painting is from a set up I did for me and an artist friend.  She wanted to practice painting from  a set up.  I got some roses and found this vase at an antique store in St. Andrews.  This type of painting helps you to really see the light and shadow on your subject and to observe shapes.  Hope you like it!

Day Six 09/06/16 Thirty Paintings in 30 Days

A friend was driving to my house and saw this Blue Shack back off the road. She got out and took some pictures and brought them to me for us to paint.  We were studying perspective at that time.  From the picture she had taken, we had a hard time determining the placement of the horizon line.  So we went back to the shack and walked around and took lots more pictures and we determined our horizon.  We also had better light.   I just love learning new stuff!!

Hope you like this painting.
