The Challenge

"Communal Table"

8x10 Oil on Panel

Taking a 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge to get me back in the swing of painting on a daily basis.  Painting what inspires me.  I hope that you will follow my progress & we'll see where I land at the end of September. 

On Break

"Taking a Break"

3x8  Oil on Paper

$95

Another of my oil sketches from my "Mornings on Green Street" series.  There is an Italian restaurant across from the cafe and these chefs stepped out for a bit of fresh air.  The light hit their crisp white uniforms & I couldn't resist painting them.  Went back today but they didn't come out.  Instead I sat there and inhaled the wonderful smell of garlic bread.  Such is the hard life of an artist.  No worries, I'll be back waiting to capture their next break.

Two glorious hours in the studio this morning.  That might not sound like much but in comparsion to no studio time, I'll take it.  Maybe the lack of easel time has me dying to spread my wings.  Waiting to see what flies off the brush in the next few weeks.  Happy weekend.
