Red Wine

6" x 6", Oil on paper

Experimenting more with the Arches paper.  I was aiming for an appearance of a print (being on paper with the traditional clean, white border) yet still be a painting.  The actual size of the paper is 12" x 12". So it looks like this:

Wine-Paper-Study

8" x 10", Oil on paper

I'm trying out Arches Huile paper for the first time.  It can take oil paint directly without primer.

A Sweet Dog

6" x 6", oil on cradled panel

This is another wedding related painting.  It's a commission from a dear friend of mine for a gift for her dear friends who got married today.  It's a portrait of their dog Suki.

Fruit Tart

6"x 6", oil on panel

This I did as gift for a bride-to-be who among many things is also a talented baker.  It was so hard not to just stick that fork in it while I was painting and eat it!

Figure Study #16

A new alla-prima figure study from today:

8" x 10", oil on gessoed paper

I was hoping to paint the whole figure but before I knew it the time was up.  Sigh... I would have liked to continue on this one.
