... when you are enjoying it so much, you never want it to end, but you want to know how it will finish. That's how I feel about this painting.

| I've done thin wash of indanthrone blue on everything inside the shed. The colors I am using for the geese are quin. sienna, quin. burnt orange, quin. coral, brown madder, cobalt blue and ultramarine violet [I think - can't read the label]. |
 |
| I am keeping the brighter colors for the geese in the foreground. |
 |
Here I've painted w/w with indanthrone, quin. burnt orange and brown madder to suggest old wooden boards ... |
 |
| ... and gone over it with indanthrone. |

I've done some soft shadowing of the geese inside, and a w/w wash of the outside boards of the shed, using cobalt blue and quin. burnt orange. Thankfully, there are many more hours of play-time left with this painting. :)
Thank you for dropping by, and your comments are always welcome! |
These geese rush out and I, I cant stand to see the end of the story ;)

This is so beautiful Kathryn. It is very much like a good book. But I confess, sometimes I peek at the ending if the suspense is too much! Naughty I know! How would you do that with a painting I wonder. ;)
ReplyDeletethis is fantastic so far, Kathryn!!! LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteI know the ending will be fantastic!I love the smoothness in your work.
ReplyDeleteWith each new development these geese are getting more noisy as they come alive. Good work Katherine. This is going to be very special. I love multiple forms that break up background (albeit negative) space. It adds energy and livliness.
ReplyDeleteIt's fascinating to see them emerge and come to life! Wonderful!
