How about this weather! I am ready for the spring (that we did not have)/fall temps of 70's. I have been busy with my summer job, which is parking concerts and melting in this humidity. I then took a week to see my baby girl in her new home in North Carolina.
So now it is back to work. I am reading paintings for the Miamisburg Art Show that is due August 6th. The opening is August 13th. I plan on entering Locked Out and the painting I started below.
Although it is hard to tell, I drew the lady looking at flowers on a 11"x14" Kilamangaro paper. I choose this subject to paint because I liked how the lady's sweat shirt blended with all the flowers.
I put masking fluid in the areas that I wanted to keep clean for either white spaces or flowers. The washes laid in the areas where the flowers will be and a few architectural elements are.
I washed in the basic outline of her shirt, hair,pants, flower pots,door and tent outline.
I haven't forgotten about showing the final post of the oil still life. I am still deciding if it is done. Meanwhile, I need to get thisWC finished.
Stay cool
