Spots, redo

"Spots" redo - 6 x 6 inches, oil on gessoboard

Buy with Paypal

Sometimes a painting tells you it needs a little more work.  "Spots" is one of many in my art career that needed a redo.  Many times, I scrape a board down after painting all day on it.  I do the latter because I don't any physical evidence of a hopeless painting.  

A slather of paint here, a background adjustment and a a few more tweaks was what it took to give "Spots" a sunnier disposition.  Now, he's a very happy camper and I have learned a little bit more, so we are both better for the experience.

Cardinal Conclave

ACEO, 2.5 x 3.5 inches Watercolor, $ 18. Buy with Paypal As of this posting the Roman Catholic Cardinals are still in conclave to discover the next pope.  I'm not Roman Catholic but I do have a wonderment about the this process because it's so entwined in mystery.   This little watercolor Cardinal was at my bird feeder where he grabbed a sunflower seed and quickly flew to a tree limb to perch and enjoy.  After which he waits his turn to return.
