Pretty Boy Roy

8x8 Oil on museum quality panel

 

Good Morning Monday!  Pretty Boy is painted in all his brilliant colors to brighten your Monday.  He was so much fun to paint that I also painted him in pastels--maybe a later post.  This is also a palette knife painting.  I picked up fresh color, applied it and did very little blending.

 

Thanks for your visit.  Have a great day!





 

Aqua Boat   8x8   Oil

on Museum Quality Panel

 

 I really love painting boats and especially the reflections in the water.  This boat was painted with a palette knife, a bit smoother than you normally think of palette knife paintings.  I think the soft colors create a peaceful painting.  Makes me want to jump in and take a ride.

 

Wishing you a peaceful Monday.  Thank you for stopping by for a visit today! 

 

 





Evening on the Lake

Evening on the Lake

5x7  Oil  on Panel

 

 

A palette knife painting using blues to depict the late evening light on the lake just before darkness sets in.  I used a mixture of Alizarin and Ultramarine Blue for the dark trees and reflections in the water.  I seem to prefer smaller formats such as 5x7, 6x6 and 8x8.  It's fun to experiment with different themes and methods and not invest in a larger painting.  I do sometimes venture into the larger paintings and will post some in the future.  Thank you for stopping by.  I sincerely appreciate your time.
