I was awarded 3rd Place in my Hometown’s Annual Exhibit with this painting today. I’m thankful, you never know what jurors are going to like.

I’m enjoying Spring and the flowers it brings! It doesn’t hurt to use up the Reds that I mixed either! I hope your able to stop and smell the flowers!
Painting Makeover 02
AFTER
This palette knife painting represents a rose from memory. In the BEFORE version I was satisfied with the composition, but not the colors I don’t know why I use the dull brown. Anyway, I looked at it today by chance, and thought I want to fix this. The texture has a bit different effect covering over the top of existing texture but I’m glad I went for it! I may try this again from scratch sometime.

Warm Vs. Cold WIP2
1st is the blue underainting, 2nd is the red. The flower is not finished and I will do other adjustments. However subtle, even with opaque media there is a difference.
Warm vs. Cold WIP
I love color!!! Today, I’m doing an experiment with warm and cold underpaintings. The first is Cobalt Blue with gesso, and the second is Cadmium Red with a little Burnt Sienna. The grayscale photo shows they are of the same tone. I will paint the same lilly pads with flower on each. Hopefully I can post at least one of them later today.
A Rose for Valentine’s Day
I could let the opportunity pass by to paint a Red Rose for Valentine’s Day. I hope you and have a good one! 8″x10″ Canvas Panel.
Bigger Blood Orange Painting
I decided to do a bigger painting of this for “The Red Show” Exhibit. 9″x12″x1.5″ I used a Red underpainting for this one. I’ve been wanting to try this. I’m going to do it more often now.
