Onions: Watercolor 5x7 140lb. Strathmore Paper |
The painting of onions is complete. I need to matte and deliver
to the Boys and Girls Club for their Fundraiser in April.
I liked the old timey and rustic feel of this scene. I used a limited palette
of Indigo, Paynes Gray, Winsor and Newton Orange, Sepia and Violet. I am
not sure that I got the onion skins looking translucent, but I like the way
the metal looks like rusting metal. I also like the way the wood wall and
shelf turned out.
As for March Madness....
Those who have followed me for awhile know that I am a huge Kentucky fan
and everytime the tournaments come around I get pre-occupied. This year
the Wildcats won their SEC tournament and have made it through
two games of the NCAA tournament. Usually this keeps me from
getting anything done in my studio. I am happy to say that this
year since the beginning of the SEC tournament to today, I
have completed the onions, the two lighthouse exercises and
the little girl with the flower dress is almost complete. I guess the
timing of the games and UK's wins have been in my favor this year. :-)
Go Big Blue!
