Three Wheel Drive

Three Wheel Drive 9x12 oil on board
sold

I ran across this old tractor while I was out painting recently.

It immediately inspired me and brought up fond

memories. 

I spent part of my

childhood on a farm, way back when, and this looked

just like the tractor I used to drive when I was a kid,

(and way too young to drive). 

I remember I had to stand up to reach all the pedals

and the gear shift.

It was so much fun and I felt soooo grown up!

Priceless:)

Thanks so much or letting me share my artwork with you.

Your comments are welcomed and appreciated:)

I am really enjoying painting these cows. They are

such Rubenesque models,

as a friend politely pointed out to me;)

This vine was sparkling in the sunlight,

waving in the breeze,

and whispering my own thoughts back to me-

"it's great to be alive"!

One of the things that impressed me the most in the

workshop with Ovanes Berberian was watching

him do a demo from a black and white rough sketch.

He did the painting largely from imagination, and

suggested that we do the same, either from a

previously painted painting or a loose sketch,

revisiting the same scene or subject multiple times.

I really enjoyed painting this and found it was much

easier to ignore local color and just create my own

color scheme.

The recent challenge to paint 30 paintings in 30 days

by Leslie Saeta

was great!

Sometimes it was fun and sometimes not so much.

I didn't get to 30 but feel like I did as well

as I could considering I was abroad for twelve days.

 

It was like attending Procrastinators Anonymous for big time

wasters like me who can loose focus in a heartbeat.

 

But the best part of participating, besides the motivation to

get my booty in gear, was seeing lots of fabulous art and

making so many wonderful new artists friends. 

Thanks to all for your encouraging comments

and lets stay connected!
