New still life painting!  :)

This is my most recent painting!  It's the last picture, which completes the course that I took with Dan Edmondson.  Now I shall move on to setting up more of my own still lifes to paint!

Dorothea Tanning has died

Okay, not a good day.  Just heard that Dorothea Tanning died yesterday, at age 101.  


R.I.P. Dorothea.  

I completed another painting, as an assignment for Daniel Edmondson's painting course!

This is a painting that I started some months ago, but then put aside.  I went back to it yesterday, and finished it today!

I finished another assignment for Daniel Edmondson's painting course!  This is acrylic on canvas, 11" x 14".  

I finished another acrylic painting today!  This too was completed as part of Daniel Edmondson's online painting course (reference my previous post).


What I liked about doing this painting, was working with a strong overall color for the whole scene (in this case, yellow)...

Here are some acrylic paintings that I've recently completed! These were created as part of the oil painting study course taught by Daniel Edmondson.    (Dan's letting me use acrylics in his oil painting class). The scenes are based on still lifes set up by Dan.  You can visit Dan's artist's website here:  www.danieledmondson.com

I'm still exploring dark colors in my newest work.  But this time, the artwork is not digital!  This was created with acrylic paint and soft pastels, on paper.  I call it  "Memories of a Burning House", and basically it's an exploration of color on a black and blue background.  

I tried a different approach to my artwork here, in this newly completed image.  This scene kind of resembles the old style CRT screen resolution, as seen in classic video games.  The inspiration for the content of the scene, was the Atari VCS game "Adventure", as well as the original package art from Electronic Arts' "Adventure Construction Set" (two of my favorite games as a youngster).  The software used to create this was Blender, Painter, and Photoshop.  You can click the image for a larger view.
