$120 - 6x6" original oil painting

Snow creates such awesome shapes! Like the fun bits on the bicycles. Snow almost outlines them. I love winter! To be honest, this painting was suppose to be about the bikes but it was the little quick brushstrokes for the footprints that were the most fun!

I am very happy with the simplicity in this painting. I wanted to capture the peacefulness I experience while cycling early in the morning.

I enjoyed yesterday plein-air painting at the University of Toronto campus. My eye caught this beautiful little Sakura tree next to a cute bicycle with a basket. Couldn't resist!

Well, we've had lots of snow! I love the way snow sits between the tree branches and on bicycle seats. It makes good shapes. Also, I wanted to see if I could get two thirds of the bicycle to 'work' in the foreground. I'm happy with this year's first winter scene.

Still having a blast using the Copic Markers value 30% and 70%, along with a black Micron 3 pen. Each title came to me as I was drawing, which you can see under the sketch.

In my last post, I added a picture of a painting I did on location. Here it is! If you look carefully, you'll see the little dog about to cross the street.

Red Bicycle

I thought I'd spend this week doing a few online painting challenges.  This first one is from The Green Palette which posted bicycles as this week's subject. This lovely red bicycle lives around the corner from me.
