Fall Colours Sketch acrylic on canvas panel 5X7 in.
This was inspired by the fall colour photos I took up the mountains on Beaver Lake Road just east of our house this autumn. I'm also trying to implement and remember the techniques and lessons I learned form the April workshop I took with Neil Patterson. I'm still having a hard time with making the colour work and with just laying on LOTS of paint. Maybe its because I'm feeling stingy after the Christmas frenzy??
Here's a couple photos that inspired today's painting... Enjoy!
I'm back to painting and committing to doing some kind of creative artwork or art activity a day. One thing that I'm looking at doing with consistency is the
Daily PaintWorks Weekly Challenge. If you click on the link you'll see that this weeks challenge is "Paint your Breakfast". I posted this painting:
"A Shot of Egg" acrylic on canvas 6"X6" $60
And you can "like" my painting or any of the others and comment as well. Still life is a great way to practice and learn...painting from life...not photos...
Last post I was curious to know if any of you had a favourite Muppet Character and thanks to those who shared! While I adore many of the Muppets, I do have a favourite and it is.....

KERMIT!! I love Kermit and I am very fond of him...AND I was going to take a picture of MY Kermit as I am the proud owner of a Kermit that I got for Christmas in 1976 from one of my siblings BUT .....HE'S MISSING :-(
I've realised that I am missing a few packed away treasures from my childhood. I can't seem to locate the box or bag that contained these items. I sure hope it didn't get left in Texas or somehow got stuck in a box for the Salvation Army. Sigh...I think I need to go through the unpacked boxes in our garage...
And speaking of boxes...
Wiley's Christmas Present
Honestly, I don't know how she does it....she will play with her tail, rolling around in this cramped place and managing to stay inside it....
And it just so happens that one of my favourite artists, Dreama Tolle Perry, posted this week about "thinking outside the box". You MUST read her post
here! ENJOY!
