I’m calling Seascape 2 finished except for a few sharp wave lines in the foreground and a signature. I didn’t sign it today cause a wave line might go over the signature. I’m talking 10 minutes of painting. I’m happy with it.
Worked on Still Life 13. In September I’ll be taking a three-week trip to the Southwest to fish, maybe the Conejos River and tributaries in southeast Colorado, and to take landscape photos to use as reference for some loose, impressionistic paintings. The landscape I painted a few months ago was a lot of fun and it was fast. Plus people like that type of thing much more than realistic still life paintings.
Worked on Seascape 1. This is not as far along as Seascape 2. Not sure if this will turn out. The sky is giving me a hard time. I think the water and boat will be ok after the next session.
Worked on Seascape 2. Soon.
Worked on Still Life 7. Details remain.
Worked on Still Life 12. It’s finished except for details on the bottle, glass stem and base, apple, grapes, and wood grain.
Worked on Still Life 11. This is finished except for some details in the glass stem and base, bottle, apple, and shadows, but they are just details that will be painted with the paint mixed for a different painting.
Worked on Seascape 1.
Worked on Seascape 2. It should be close to finished after the next session.
Worked on Seascape 1. If I ever get the sky dialed in this will be a good painting. The water needs individual waves.
