Process of Art

Art is a continuing process. For me there is always another way to learn how to work with a media whether it is oil, graphite, acrylic or pastel. New surfaces to work with and different mediums to make the things work differently sometimes smoother more refined sometimes with more brushstrokes or lines.

Challenge of Florals

We have had a rainy last couple of weeks. It has been a while since I set up some florals so rainy days are perfect still life opportunities. I have been experimenting with my palette knife more. Learning how to move the paint with the knife is a challenge but enjoyable. "Jumping Up Lilies" has a good bit of palette knife work. "Spring Bouquet" has more roses in it than I have ever put together before. The shapes of the flowers change by the hour!
