Something great happened with this painting......I really liked it!! I love the texture, the hues, just about everything. I guess I shouldn't be saying that about my own work, but I do!<br />
<br />
I really enjoyed painting this piece and I think it shows. I think it is important that an artist expresses their feelings in their work and I feel I was able to do that with this piece. I was not trying to replicate an image, or colors, or even a composition. I admit I was thinking about a companion piece to the one below.<br />

It was a really good feeling to create these two pieces, more or less, out of my head, and I hope to do more of this in the future.<br />
<br />
I have one more fishy piece to show you in my next post.<br />

Another fish painting. Don't ask what kind of fish it is, I don't know.<br />
<br />
I do know I am enjoying these palette knife paintings immensely. I have been so intense about my brush work, that I had ignored the palette knife for months. Now that I am working with it again, I am enjoying the freedom it brings.<br />

Away from the hustle and bustle of life, the job, the town, .......just everything?<br />
<br />
This little painting, is my idea of that perfect get away. It's on a quiet mountain road, snuggled up under the trees, but not so far from civilization that I would not want to be there alone. In other words.....PERFECT!<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">You know how I love color and texture and this little painting has it all. <br /><br />I painted it on a 8x8x3" canvas, so even the shape is unique. It's chunky and cute and it resides on a bookshelf , where it brightens the whole room. I cannot help but smile each time I look at it.<br /><br />The canvas was a mistake. I did not realize how deep it was when I ordered it. What could I possibly do with it? Well, for this painting, I think it is perfect!<br /><br />Have a fantastic day!</span><br />

I am very happy with the understated color which makes the brighter hues really pop. I am not sure if it would be call an abstract or impressionistic.......what do you think?<br />
<br />
What I do know, I really enjoyed painting it and want to try it again and go BIG!<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "graphik web" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">For years, I felt I was not a "real artist" and hid my shameful secret. Actually, I have so much respect for artists that strap a 36x48" canvas on their back and then hike 7,000 feet to the top of a mountain to paint. Such dedication, and yes, the light cannot be duplicated. But, neither can those special effects you can capture with a camera. </span><br />

Everyday, I would pass this beautiful creature and his mate, gliding across the water of a small pond. When I saw the photograph I was able to take, I knew I would want to paint it.<br />

I painted with brush and palette knife and was able to obtain a nicely textured surface to indicate the water.<br />
The background, which was difficult to photograph correctly, is a mixture of a rich brown and a greenish dark.<br />

I have done several paintings using the reference images I took that day. One is a 11x14 pastel and one is a 6x8 oil. I am glad I had my camera that day because the birds are gone now. I like to think they just flew away.<br />
<br />
Thank you for viewing my daily painting today. I hope you will pin it!<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">You know how I love color and texture and this little painting has it all. <br /><br />I painted it on a 8x8x3" canvas, so even the shape is unique. It's chunky and cute and it resides on a bookshelf , where it brightens the whole room. I cannot help but smile each time I look at it.<br /><br />The canvas was a mistake. I did not realize how deep it was when I ordered it. What could I possibly do with it? Well, for this painting, I think it is perfect!<br /><br />Have a fantastic day!</span><br />

We have beautiful palm trees, but when it comes to the huge leafy trees of my childhood, in the north, not so much.<br />
