Color blocking in oil painting

I was inspired tonight by an painting I saw completely done in color blocking. It reminded me of the 70s somewhat, and with the bright purples and yellows and greens... the portrait came to life. I was thinking of going back to this for exercise and bring me back to dealing with values in shadows. It is very difficult to assess values in shadows unless your eye is trained to see color in strange places!
My next project will be to simply see color in and use color to shadow rather than use darks and glazing. Create the illusion using thick paint is rather challenging as well because light pigments require thicker paint, than dark shadows in oil painting.
I will post examples this week along with two finished paintings that are almost done.
Live, love, paint, meditate and bake on... :)

This was another joy of 3 sittings for me. Not quite the daily painting. I had to paint in the same lighting all the time so I would have to wait till following day same time to paint. There are more coming. I will try to not wear a ponytail this time. I alwsy tie it up for these reflective portraits.

send me an offer if you wish. It is currently HOMEPAGE featured on Ebay for 7 days so let's see where that goes!

Great day to paint outdoors! Windy had a storm
and the sun peeped out again! I would like to do
a few more this summer on a larger scale. Love the
juicy blues, turquiose in the tree which can't be
seen in the pics and the magenta halos around the
clouds, tree, and distant scape in there! Used lots of
paint for this one. Enjoy!!!

*Night painting

This was a a great session. My speciality is portraits and I have been doing still lives, landscapes, desserts, marbles and very little portraits. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! I am getting back on track with figurative series so this was a push for me. I particularly enjoy the lazy eye the model has. Her eyes are incredible in real life. They are green and have black spots all around. So alien! Look for huge portraits of this model in my official website coming soon!

This was a quick study I did of the self-portrait of famous painter Odd Nerdrum, famous living master from the Netherlands. It came out fresh and juicy! Love the flesh tones in this one! His work is impossible to buy! Museums and very wealthy patrons can reserve a piece. I love some of his smaller works and so did this little study. Eventually I will do more. This is your chance to own a painting by me, with Odd Nerdrum as a theme. Enjoy! If this was an actual Odd Nerdrum, it would be sold for over $100,000 for this exact size!

This was a fun piece! I love the Smallville Series I am working on. This is a screen accurate (actual barn and house on the set), painting of the land, barn and house in which our superhero lives and works. I love the way the famous Clark Kent aka Superman Hero lives on a beautiful farm with an amazing barn house for a private hang out. Horses, the green outdoors! What more can you want out of life? Still chasing the dream... through my art that is. This would make my all time favorite Studio to paint and create works in. Enjoy!
