What I was going to show you


Sometimes while painting on wood I have these hidden pitfalls, such as the pivet of wood missing in the painting Windblown. I didn't see it until the painting was almost done and I had to hit it with some sandpaper. I had to sand off the ridges until it all smoothed out. I've heard some people cringe when I do this or paint black over the entire painting and start again, but if it needs repaired it needs it, or if it needs starting all over, so be it. I want to get it right. Just thought that might be interesting, Take care and have fun!

The Whisper

Hello again! This is my newest painting The Whisper. It's kind of a Romantic piece, I haven't really done any, maybe I should do more. You might have to zoom in to get more of that Romantic look I'm talking about. It's always good to try new moods, but here again I had fum playing with the sunlight in the pic. And, I don't know if I had mentioned, I'm on Etsy now so if anyone wants to buy artwork from me, check out Etsy...I'm there!
