Tipped Over

Image
Tipped Over I am intrigued by squash, goards,and pumpkins. Actually I am intrigued by a lot of things. I guess as most other artist I almost drool at shapes and values, hues and down right color. I found these goards at wetcanvas and had to paint them. I have struggled to develop my STYLE. What I ask myself  is my style? Sometimes it seems as though each and every time I sit down to paint the canvas is new and I have forgotten how I did it the last time. Yesterday and today I started out drawing my intended painting which I rarely ever do but I am ready for some change. I also painted on 12x12 a change from my comfort zone of 5x7. Who knows what I will do tomorrow but as for today I am pretty happy with the results. 12x12 acrylc on gallery wrapped canvas Paypal Available
