Artist Easel



Artist Easel, Christmas Ornament, $14.00

I was inspired to make a Christmas Ornament just for artists and their trees!  The painting on the easel is a cropped print of one of my paintings that is bonded to the wood panel.  The panel is gorilla glued to the easel and passed the dropped test...stayed in one piece!  

I added tiny pine cones and a red cloth ribbon for a rustic charm.  

On another note, I'm going to start adding a Biblical Proverb a day to my blog.  Think of it as a nugget of Godly wisdom, based on common sense.  Below is today's:

"Hear counsel and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in the latter end" - Prov 19:20

Every time I see her latest collection on YouTube, I am awestruck at how pure the background color is.  So I wanted to try my hand at upping background color value in my work.   Below is how I started: Hay Maze Start Here, I establish the main layout and gesture of this piglet's face.  I'm striving for something that looks painterly, yet would bring a smile to the face of the viewer, so this stage is important.  Also, color values on the pig are being set.   Hay Maze about halfway This is where I put that rich background color in.  Notice some neutral colors in with the bright.  I wouldn't want all bright green here as it would be like all caps when texting.  I'll re-post the final Hay Maze below: Lots of changes from the halfway point,  I added shadows in the h

The Rare Snowman

The Rare Snowman, 4 x 4 inches, Oil on Panel Sold - Thank you! It's a warmer day today and the one snowman in the neighborhood is not faring well.  In addition to melting he's got a problem with one of his twig arms.  I take Cooper & Cookie for short walks several times a day and when I saw what was happening to this guy, I knew I had to make a painting of him.   While returning home, I pondered  how many snowmen are not created because of video games.  I know that I don't see them much at all.
