Well, once I got off my butt and got to business, I managed to complete the little oil without too much difficulty. I am quite pleased! Here it is:
Green, oil on canvas, 12" x 12"
There is no clever title. "Green" sums it up just fine. It will take some time to digest some of the things going on here - the lighting, the space, the juxtaposition of the objects... It is exactly how it is supposed to be, but I need to figure out the "why this way?" part.
Now for momentum. I have several ideas bouncing about for some large-scale pastels. Funny, but the ideas for oils are all small! We'll have to see where the ideas take me, but I'll need to start right away before I forget where my head was taking me while painting this. Glad for the cool, clear days. They seem to help.
As far as the postings and communications: I am torn at the best way to do so. So far, posting these blog links to Facebook has not resulted in as much feedback as I thought they might. I really LOVE getting feedback. If I post the images of work directly to Facebook, I get a few comments from people. If any of you have suggestions on how to connect the two and generate more feedback, it would be greatly appreciated.
All for now,
Laura
