I like this a lot. The red really pops against the cool grays in the plate and clock. I like the red reflections too. Really nice color palette and composition.
"Is it just me or does everyone wake up one day and your paintings are different." Great question. I think that over time you evolve.
You are very faithful about painting every day. It's sort of like practicing the scales if you are learning the piano. All that practice is bound to have an effect on your painting. I just scrolled down and looked at your paintings when you first started posting on your blog. You paint in a much looser style now. It's really interesting to see the change.
Getting My Feet Wet A day at the beach is soooooo much fun. I find that you can just romp and play until your tongue hangs out....No literally. So much fun that no wonder we can't come here every day. I would only weigh about a pound. I have never thought of exercise in such an enjoyable way. Wow! am I tired.

Chicken Shaker by Angela Sullivan I just thought that I would post this in two versions. The original and the revised. I don't usually post personal things but I couldn't resist. Logan my grandson has just moved to town. He is five. That should tell you enough but I will continue. I painted this the other day of a salt shaker my husband gave me for Christmas and a few grapes. It was still on my easel when Logan came for a visit. The next morning I went to paint and my chicken looked a little different than it did the night before. It was kinda streaked and some red was in places that I did not intend for it to be. I ask him and Paul my 6 year old grandson if either of them had been in my studio and if they knew why my painting was smeared both said no but then Logan went on to say as he pointed at my palette knife. I think they used that to do it with. I looked closer to find the tip of the knife covered with red paint. Paint just like is on the chicken beak. How could I be...
I Give My All This is another painting I did to try and perfect the gift or at least get a little better at it. I am still trying to develop one for my bigger painting which I will keep. Again this is not it. For sale or auction at my DPW gallery just follow the link to pay via Pay Pal. 10"x8" oil on canvas panel.
Wonderful piece, Angie. So many elements all working beautifully together.

I think you could have left out the cameo and this would have been a great little painting. With the cameo it's nice too. It really caught my eye!
ReplyDeleteThis one is a beaut!
ReplyDeleteI love the red mug and the texture of the paint!
