It's All DownHill From Here-A Painting A Day



I found I had alot of paint left at the end of the day, so I used what was on my palette to create this brilliantly hued little work that just sings with color and rich texture. It is heavy impasto, lots and lots of built up layers, all done with knife. I find there are techniques I can get from a knife that just can't be delivered with a brush, LOVE that !


This one is considerably looser, much less "structured" than the other works posted here. I enjoy working this way now and then, it is a sort of purge.

This is a 6"x6" oil, sides painted ( as with most all my work) so you needn't frame it. ( unless you feel some deep conviction about framing, that is. :) This work would be such a lovely spot of color on a bookshelf, your office cubicle, on an etagere or mantel, anywhere you want some color to live.

Thanks for taking a look, there is more to come~
