Studio Visitor

This very funny & fuzzy little man hung out with me in the studio this week - I was dog sitting for some friends.

This is Simon's late afternoon "I am bored" stare!

New Painting in Progress

This is the under painting for a large piece that I started last week. I've been working on building up the surface layers and am drawing on it with conte crayon today to create an underlying structure...

Color Inspiration: Orchid

This orchid was the inspiration for the Flower Portrait (Orchid) painting in the previous post. 
Every time I went into my studio to paint, I would pass by this orchid which was sitting on a table nearby. When the sunlight would hit the petals, they just glowed with this beautiful fuchsia color. 
The color made such a connection with me and I loved the elegant shape of the petals. I couldn't get it out of my head - so I knew it would be my next painting!
The pic shows the color matching I did in the studio.
