Digital Painting

Always a new experiment:

For some reason I have a tendency towards working or playing with my art from the vantage point of an experiment. I am not out to prove anything; I just enjoy "what iffing." And so, I offer you my latest "what if" using (learning) a new program (new to me) called Procreate.

CAST PAINTING

I just completed taking a class from Andrew Van DeGoede at the Coppini Academy. This was an extension of the cast drawing class that I took last semester and we completed a limited palette painting.

Graduation Gift For My Niece

My niece wanted one of my paintings for her graduation.

My niece wanted one of my paintings for her graduation, and so I decided to give her a continuation of: A 1940's Love Story (see December 31, 2016 post for the graphite collage study). Watercolor - on Arches paper - I had two separate photos that I had to work from, and I had to make up a shadow for my mother. Since today is Memorial Day, it seems like a good time to share this.
