Winter is upon us and I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season, filled with family and friends.
Probably,
like you, I have been so busy with holiday events and end of year
activities, that I have not been in the studio until today.Before Christmas I did get into the studio to do a painting of birds that was inspired by my friends. Today, I decided to try another in a series of birds; a subject I have been interested in working on for a time. This is the thumbnail drawing for the painting.
Next I did a charcoal value under drawing with charcoal to set the stage for the painting. This is on grey Ampersand sanded board. My favorite surface!
Then I worked on adding color to the painting.
Here is a detail where I am adding texture to the painting.
I am not yet finished, but at least I got back into the studio!
My challenge to you for this next block of classes is to think about a series. There are so many topics and ideas you can explore.
Bring a list of ideas that you might want to explore in a series to class on Friday. We will share and inspire each other and see what happens!
Here's to living an art-filled life!
Judy
