Spring Bike Path 3 - oil on canvas - 24 x 12" |
Instead I'm posting this almost finished painting, it's another in my new theme of the moment. heh. I like this time of year in my studio, it's good for painting...not too hot, not too cold...when I need a break I wander outside into the garden. There is lots of new things everyday going on out there. Violets are everywhere; the last of the tulips are cheerfully standing guard, poppies are just about to pop into bloom.
This one is another gem Sally! If you didn't write that it wasn't finished I would have thought otherwise! Beautiful! I so love your latest "Bike Path" series!
ReplyDeleteGreat lighting!

Another great painting Sally - I love the shadiness and the mood it evokes. I loved hearing about your flowers in detail - do you have any photos to show us?
ReplyDeleteYour Art After Dark evening sounded very pleasant indeed!
I love this -- you are such a painter of joy. I felt happy the moment I opened your blog and looked at this incredible painting. You've got it all, the light, the mood.

Halloo Michael! thanks for your kind comments on my bike path series. Its exciting for me to have a new theme to work on. I updated the unfinished work image to the new finished version, so no surprise you thought it done. me too now.:)
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy, Thanks for your thoughts. I actually did take a few pics in the garden today, and will try to post a few soon! Hope you're having a great day.
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara,
ReplyDeleteThank you for that comment about being a painter of joy. You are right, it is joy that inspires me most to paint. When I'm not feeling joy, the only thing I can work on is abstracts. funny huh?
