late evening together

$140 - original 8x10” oil painting on wooden panel 

Well, I'm painting in oil again. The gouache I've been working with is wonderful but it won't 'stick' to any surface that has been gessoed. So, I thought I'd try oil again. 

Check out the close ups below. It's so fun blending oil... and so different from watercolour. Also below is a picture of the back of the 1" cradled panel. 

The wooden cradled panel has approximately a 1"edge on it.

Flowers have such a beautiful abstract quality. They really are a joy to paint. And this turquoise vase is one of my favourites.

It's always interesting to paint dark colours in watercolour. Here, I decided to contrast some white flowers with a dark vase. I threw the clementines in there for a mid-value. : )

Back from vacation and into the studio with this simple still life. I love this little water spritzer that I found at a garage sale. I usually can't find anything at sales, but this original watering device caught my eye. I found a glass one too. The morning light, a clementine and a flower seemed to suit it well. : )

I loved playing around with the pinks and reds in these flowers! They really brightened up my day since it's still coooold outside.

We are having a severe cold spell here in Toronto. So, the only thing to do is stay inside evenings and paint flowers. The challenge here was to see if a bright orange background would work.

The challenge of painting white with watercolour is always an enjoyable mission, and a little clementine came by to see what all the excitement was about.
