Rising Clouds Over the Everglades

Here is my second large painting. This time I stretched my limits, but I had so much fun! It measures 24" x 36", yes almost Salon size! It is also done with a brush, and I have some yummy impasto here and there.

Today I will try to stretch a canvas for my next one, 30" x 36" ! I just hope it fits on my easel!

WOW! Summer is almost over!

Well, I guess I am changing my Blog title to "Almost a painting a month"! I didn't anticipate that during summer vacation my kids would be so demanding, and I zero time for painting.

Amazingly enough I managed to paint this one and another two weeks ago! My 4 year old now won't let me get close to my studio! I think I may need to wait till they all go to school and I can finally start painting on a regular basis.

I haven't titled this painting yet but it is a 24" x 24", oil on claessen linen. I did it with the brush.
