Golden Pot Oil on Linen 11 x 14
Most of my creative energy has gone into writing for the past ten days. I'm continuing to work on Picard's biography, but I still manage to fit in some painting because I love it. Perhaps you'd be interested to see a work in progress. I think it is fun to see a half-grown painting. Here is the painting so far. The Golden Pot is not yet golden, but you can see a hint of it in the reflection on the bottle.
On the left is a photo of my still life setup. Credit for this method of painting goes to The Carder Method. See link on the right.
As of today, my faithful blog readership is at thirty-three regular subscribers and growing, slowly but surely. A couple of you add comments here on the blog and several of you send me email directly. Whatever means you use to reach me is fine.
This is looking really good Shelley! Do you always work on one section at a time?
ReplyDeleteHi Liz, no I don't always work this way. This painting is mostly done using The Carder Method. There is a link to the website on the right. I seem to be all over the map in my painting methods these days... Sometimes like this, sometimes working up the canvas in layers. I'm a bit mixed up about it all! How about you?
ReplyDeleteHi Shelley, This is looking real good - I'm going to have to check out your Carder method - as I'm teaching several painting classes this semester. You know that painting glass is one of my loves.
