Pink Bike

Yesterday I was very challenged by a larger painting I have been working on. It has a lot of greenery which can be difficult for me. Anyway, when I didn't want to look at it anymore, I did this 6x6 oil from the Daily Paintworks Challenge. It did help me to shift gears and get "unstuck". SOLD

Oscar


I just finished this 5x5 acrylic on canvas for the SPCA auction held a couple of months ago. It was a fun one to do. Oscar's photo was supplied by his parents.The photo of the painting was done with my new photo shoot kit (Shutter Starz). I am still learning how to take better photos of my work. After spending an hour and a half playing with lighting and settings on my camera, this was my result. I would say the tripod and the timer are my best friends!
