Massage Instructor

Here's what's on my easel today - this is the initial sketch for a watercolor painting I'm working on. This is one of my husband's massage instructors (he's going to massage school - lucky me!). He asked me to do a little painting of her with her dog as a gift.

This is a graphite pencil drawing I did this morning featuring my favorite old blue shirt.

Market Day

A little study/watercolor sketch from our local market.

Percussion

I've had the reference photo this is based on for a long time. This woman was playing as part of a group during our local Art Fair.

Morning Ritual...

I started painting this earlier in the week when it looked like winter outside...finished it up quickly this morning so I can get away from this cold scene and go outside in the warm sunshine!

DSFDF

I tried an oil painting!! I gave myself two hours to do this painting - using Karin Jurick's reference photo from her Different Strokes From Different Folks blog. I "painted along with" Susan Carlin from an earlier broadcast she did on UStream...it was really fun to paint while watching and listening to her painting. I've been doing watercolors for so long now that it was kind of weird to try oils but I found I really enjoyed it.

Summer Light...
