Yay Soup all Day! No marshmallows for you!


My new diet! Make a pot of soup and eat it all day instead of marshmallows!!Gonna lose those ugly 15 pounds.

My version of making soup is putting a can of this and a can of that in a pot with dried onion and leftovers. How good the soup is depends on the leftovers.

Now off to paint... you can see my items at my website!

Winter Watercolor!

Image
Winter Watercolor Session is coming up!! I can't wait, and I've written a doc which has the landscapes we'll be using  which you can find here. I find that things work out best if we focus on some small "mini exercises" in the first hour of class: a piece of fruit, a wood texture, a tree, a mountain ridge...something simple which gives us the steam to do a small landscape painting in the second hour. A mini exercise is like this: or this: And a typical painting which we'll do in the second hour of class is like this: A little more involved: maybe some trees, some sky, some water, a few landscape elements which exist together on a page. We work on concepts like wet-into-wet vs. wet-on-dry, and we practice color mixing, how to handle your brushes, how to use enough paint and enough pigment in your paint, all of the basics. And, it's a blast! Come join us! You can call 770 781-2215 to sign up, and you can even just show up and pay $20

Painting Landscapes with Light and Depth I'm so happy to be nearing the end of my new larger eBook on painting landscapes in oil and acrylic! It's a summation of more than 10 years as a fine art instructor and 40 years as an artist. The focus of the book is sharing my ideas about conveying realism through lighting and depicting spatial depth. I illustrate the book with hundreds of photos of paintings, as well as photos of materials, and a number of illustrations about perspective technique.  Here is an excerpt for my blog readers: If you would like to preorder this book which will be available on May 28, click here .  Excerpt  -  Chapter 5: Conveying Depth Creating a painting which inspires a viewer to remember the feeling of a place or a time in their memory is probably the unstated aim of many landscape painters.
