A VERY SHORT VIDEO OF THE BEGINNING


Hi My Friend, I have played just a couple times with a video and I'm trying to do better.
Gonna try more today.
If you have any pointers, suggestions please let me know.

Just so ya know, I was holding phone in one hand and knife in the other.  A tripod would be better.  Does anyone have anything to say about the GO PRO?

NEW ORIGINAL ABSTRACT PAINTING


Well, Hey My Friend,  I finished a couple new abstractions last night,  Photographed them today.
Then did a bit of cropping and resizing.


No color adjusting was needed because I was outside.
But I did put some on the walls in the Oh My Prints Ap.
This piece is 24" x 18" and is listed for sale in my website HERE.
And while you are here go to my FaceBook Page and like me! 'Cuz ya do, Right?

Hoping your week is going great.

NEW ORIGINAL ABSTRACTED ART UNDERWAY




Hey my Friends,  FINALLY, I am taking time to paint.  I have started several new originals.  This piece on paper is a paint-over or a Do-Over.  I put Utrect gesso (the best kind) over an older piece that I finished up a month ago.....I did not like it once I saw it again.  So it can be a good thing to postpone showing something to the world.  It will happen again, I'm sure.  No Biggie.


I started 2 more with Prussian Blue, that's my color for Jan.  Can you see the little thumbnails up top?
It has been less stressful doing these mini-thumbnails first.  I get these from looking at older/other paintings and just putting down the dark areas.  You can do that with anything.  Magazines always have photos, so try that.

I have been taking/working hard with on line business classes. So that's why I haven't been posting or painting as much. 
I may never finish this class but I will not give up my painting.

Hope your winter has been tolerable so far.  It is snowing again here in SW Va.  And my lusting for a warmer clime will never go away.

CHICKENS BY THE SEA - NEW ORIGINAL PAINTING


Hey Friends,  A 9x12 on WC paper for your viewing today.  I start with a black & white thumbnail.


My favorite app for putting art on a wall just changed their backgrounds.  I'm really happy about that.
I was tired of looking at the same old walls.

NEWS FROM HOME - ORIGINAL ARTWORK


Hey Friends,  Finished this piece of 12 IN. SQ. WC Paper AGAIN!  In other words, I painted over the first round.  I like this much better.
I got a new tube of Prussian Blue.  Haven't had this color for a long time, so I have painted several using this color sorta like a blue print.
I will try to remember next time to take some before and after photos.

Hope your day is going fabulously.
