| For both sheep paintings, I did a wet-in-wet wash with a thin violet mixture on everything except the sheep. This was to bring out the white of the sheep, and add more cohesion overall. |

| 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches I worked on all the large berries and leaves , adding more to their shadows. I feel I've done my time with small paintings for now. My comfort zone in painting is when I work on something at least a quarter sheet in size. I am planning something big and bright and floral. Stay tuned! Thank you for dropping by, and your comments are always welcome! |
I love the violet touch in the sheep painting, it gives a warm feel to it. The white berries are stunning, Kathryn, the light in the painting is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou have certainly a lot more patience than I have! Once a painting looks complete I move on as quickly as possible because I bore so easily!
ReplyDeleteBut patience is indeed a virtue and sometimes it is worth looking back and retouching. Your paintings are all lovely!! :))
I'm looking forward to your next painting, Kathryn...the sheep are fantastic.! and the berries are finished beautifully as well!!!

These two paintings are putting me in the spirit of winter - I am skipping right over Halloween and looking forward to snow and icicles and Christmas lights! Lovely work, Kathryn!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous paintings all! You've certainly got the hang of whites. Those berries in particular are outstanding. Looking forward to your quarter sheet floral. I have to say, that's my favourite size of paper too. xx
ReplyDeleteSuch a great one!! It´s just perfect!
