Ends of the Earth, abstract sunset landscape

"Ends of the Earth"


Actually was inspired by my palette, the colors are arranged all around the edges with white in the middle, so it looks almost like a rainbow at times. I began with yellow, orange, and red first, then added some white. Then I worked around to greens and blues, and finally added the violet. Then I found myself adding water, and foliage, of sorts. The purple hues remind me of a shore line. This painting has wonderful texture from the wet in wet applications with a palette knife.

Enjoy!

Monet's Cliffs, impressionism seascape demo

"Monet's Cliffs"

My kid's class choose this for our focus on art history, we didn't have time to add the women or more sailboats....but it was still very fun to challenge my students with a new way to paint. Some of them did not care for it at all and went back and smoothed out all the brush stokes! Others loved it and added more thick paint and broken strokes. I only gave them primary colors (plus white and black), so they had to add a little blue to the yellow to get shades of green, and I didn't let them mix the colors first, they had to mix it on the painting by overlapping the brush strokes! After a while some of my kids started mixing it first anyway. I laughed and told them that was fine, at least they tried it.....

Lake Place, mountain landscape

"Lake Place"


Started as a demonstration from one of my student's photos. The photo was dark, so I brightened the whole thing up while we painted it. After I got home I decided it had great potential, so I changed some of it and added a shore line, more details, and darker reflections. Love the depth and distance, as well as the peaceful feeling it has.


Enjoy!

Old Timer, wildlife, grizzly bear

"Old Timer"

I saw a similar bear in Montana, but didn't get pictures of him. So when I was at a zoo shortly after that, I took lots of pictures of this bear in in a pool. I used my Montana pictures for the background. I added extra water, and lots of furry texture (which I love).

Enjoy!

Summers End, stream in fall landscape

"Summer's End"


From a demo I did for an art lesson. This one was inspired by an art book. We changed some of the colors, and moved things around to create a stronger composition. Turned out very peaceful.


Enjoy!
