Studio Models

7x7
acrylic on cradled panel

Sold

I study with 3 great artists on a fairly consistent basis. Stanley Goldstein almost every Monday night. Tim Horn once a month for critiques and at least once a year with Peggi Kroll Roberts. Perhaps you see Peggi's influence here. Well, at least you see her daughter Ali in the forefront.
I brought this little painting into our critique session this past Monday. I won't state what I thought I needed to correct but it was suggested by Tim to do this as a larger work. I think I will!

If you are interested, I have 2016 desk calendars for sale. You can email me, kaethebealer@yahoo.com  or go to my DailyPaintworks page to purchase for $10.

Side Tie Reflection

When I come home, I walk down a ramp and this is what I see to my left. I don't think I truly captured the sense of light and reflection that captured me but its my "go" at it.
 
If you are in San Francisco this weekend, come by the Studio Gallery for the "TINY SHOW" reception, 1pm to 6pm.  Everything is 7x7 or smaller. There is a "HUGE" counterpart as well.

I am situated right across from the fuel dock. I see boats go in and out all the time. Sometimes I see a painting coming my way.

If you are a friend of mine, then you know I am annoying! Whenever someone tells me they are traveling or going to a function, I don't say "Have a good time!", I say "Take pictures!" My friend Kristie is always on the lookout for subject matter for me. She recently took this shot in her neighborhood. Apparently, she takes her assignment seriously! Thank you Kristie!

My friend Birgit used to live in a hundred year old house. I loved the interior. I have been lucky enough for her to occasionally pass on photographs that I have used as reference material. This is one of those shots!

Picking Wildflowers

7x7
acrylic on cradled panel

This image caught my eye when I was perusing the Paint My Photo site. I think my challenge here was to keep the facial features from being exaggerated. I have to remember to back up and observe what I am doing.

The "30 in 30" Collage


If you ever want to make a collage for any reason you can do it on Pic Monkey. Here is my 29 paintings I did in 30 days. Thank you for being here and being supportive. We all need that!
 
Oh and don't try to click on the squares to see the painting. Sorry to say it won't happen.
