Today I painted from a photograph that I took at the Art at the Arnold painting competition in February. I really loved how this kid looked as he sat in his oversized coat and jeans. This is my kind of portrait content, simple and moody.
This painting was made from a photograph that I took. I have this fascination lately with clouds and I have had a fascination for years with crosses in nature or unintentional crosses. This power pole exemplifies this perfectly. I had fun with the clouds and tried to keep them especially impressionistic.
Painted today at a park in Georgesville today. Usually this field has really tall grasses but they just mowed it all down. It was nice to get out especially since I brought my dog to keep me company.
Worked on the conceptual piece again tonight. This painting is nearly impossible to photograph. I have added more content and just poured some spheres throughout. Slowly carving out a painting that was already made in my head. Cant wait to meet it!
On Sunday there was a micro paintout in the Short North in Columbus to kick off the year of chosen sites. Well it was gloom and doom weather and really quite miserable... BUT it was still fun because of great company.
