Two Down

Two Down   6 x 6  oil on museum board

I'm enjoying the primary palette, the distortion of the liquid
and the reflections on the shaker.
The combinations seem endless yet each
painting is a new challenge.

I'm experimenting with a different surface this week.
I've coated each panel with three coats of gesso
sanding in between. After I play
with it a while I'll let you know which on I like best
and why.
 
How do you prepare your panels.
I order Ampersand from the states.
What do you use?

Striped Cream and Sugar

Striped Cream and Sugar 6x6 oil on museum board

I'm listening to horns honking and people singing as I
post this. We've just had the elections here in
Malta and the Labor Party is a happy bunch.
They won and ousted the National Party after
being in power for 25 years.
Apparently the idea is to make as much noise as
possible in celebration, all day and all night.
We're on day two, everyone is Still out on the
streets. Except me and probably the head of
the National Party.
Hopefully tomorrow things will return to normal,
whatever that means!

Blue Cream Rose

Blue Cream Rose  6x6  oil on board

I did this painting for the Daily Paintworks blue challenge.
The parameters were to make it predominately light,
high key, avoid any complementary colors and 
still make the blue focal point pop.
It was an interesting challenge.

Pecan Pie

Pecan Pie 6 x 6 oil on board

OK, so my diet is officially over, for this week anyway.
Obviously I have pie making on my brain.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Pumpkin Pie

Pumpkin Pie 16 x 16 Oil on Canvas

The alchemy of baking amazes me.  It's not really something
I'm good at because you really have to follow directions well.
I consider myself more of a 'creative' cook.
