Hello again painting fans.
This week I will be continuing with the Cold Spring, NY scene. The photo that I’m using is seen directly below. I’ll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 5×7 inch canvas.
When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo directly below.
Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.
For this week’s cycle I’ve attempted to get some prliminary shadows on the canvas. Note the dark blue on both gable ends as well as the left side of the porch roof. A shadow now appears under the rear of the right side car and the round bush out in front. Additional paint has been added elsewhere, most notably to the left side car and the wall at sidewalk level.
The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.
I’ll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.
Earlier paintings in this series can be seen here.
It be open.
This is coming along quite nicely. There’s a soothing Bob Ross quality to the work – happy trees and all. I like that.
I am enjoying the slight cool down while it lasts. At least no one is agitating for me to turn the A/C on – an event that should never occur before April anyway.
It was 60s here a few days ago, 20s now. I can’t wait for warmer days.
