Chicken Shaker by Angela Sullivan
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...
You are so great, love your work yvonne
ReplyDeleteMy family passionately loves our unusually wonderful cat with long very soft fur. I've seen a lot of cat art, but in my book this cat you painted beats them all by far! Maybe it's because I'm an impressionist artist, and your unique portrayal fits the type of impressionism I love so well. I am amazed at the very fine line technique you used for the whiskers and other areas of long hairs. Never have I seen anything quite like it. It captures and accents this enchanting cat so well! Is it possible for you to tell me exactly how you painted such fine lines like that? To me, it's truly an unusual and very outstanding painting. Wishing you much more continued success with your art.
