I am busy this weekend working on a new venture. I can't wait to tell you. I am trying something new in the art world. New for me. I am excited and a little nervous!
A bit of whimsy today. These little black capped chickadees look like they are up to something. They were the stars of a much larger painting I did a while back and it was inspiration for this small daily painting.

Have a nice weekend. We are venturing out to a local street fair and farmer's market. I love this time of year. It's even cool enough to break out the flannel shirts! 😍
A fresh all prima piece. Every once in a while a painting seems to paint itself. Like musical notes each brushstroke serves a purpose without getting to wordy or overworked. Wish this happened more often. :D
So good to be painting. At night I am even dreaming of mixing paint for new color combinations! The evening sun is highlighting the geraniums reminding me of the importance when painting to not "highlight" every part of the painting, it is not wallpaper I am trying to create hah!
When studying the light coming through the petals I could figure out the values but getting the color correct was a bit more of a challenge. I think I finally got it right.
