"White Sunglasses" 14" x 11" oil

This was so much fun to do for the end of summer.  I tried to keep the focus on the upper half of the figure by subduing the lower half.

"Lavaski in Yellow" 14" x 11" oil

This is what I painted last Friday in our regular Friday group.  Over the weekend I taught a workshop in figure painting which has taken much of my time before and after the event.   Sorry that I have not posted much.   Thought I would include a close up of his face which is what I spent the most time on.   I love using the cool greens, blues and lavenders in contrast with the warm browns and reds.

"Reading Treasure Island" 8" x 8" oil

While searching for an image to put in the painting I came across this book about N.C. Weyth with the image of Treasure Island that he had painted.   The glasses are for reading the book, the coins are the treasure and the dice is for the uncertainly.

"Reading" 14" x 11" oil

There was a lamp on the table that glowed onto the book and table surface which in turn lit up her face.  I put a light behind her to make her hair profile stand out because what I like best about this is the face and hair shape.

"Woodford neat" 8" x 8" oil

Woodford Reserve seems to be a popular bourbon.   The color of bourbon is fun to capture.   When it is in the bottle it is dark and light with specks of red but when a small amount is put into a glass it has more yellow and not the dark red depth.

"The Teapot and her friends" 6" x 6" oil

This was a demo that I painted in my Monday painting class.   I forgot to post that night but dreamed all night of tweaking the paint strokes.  So I was hell bent the next morning to change the painting.   So here it is!   I think it is better.   Class, what do you think?

'Bunch of Ladies' 8" x 8" oil

Most of this painting was painting with my glasses off so I could capture the essence of what the flowers looked like.   The only problem with not seeing through my glasses... I can't see how much paint I am getting on my brush!   I guess I can't have it all!
