Tonight I played around with oils and cold wax medium. I really like the look of texture in a painting, and cold wax medium provides some interesting textures. I used only palette knives and scrapers until the very end, and then I used a dagger brush to tidy up a few places. I intended to create a more abstract painting, but I kept scraping off paint and changing things up until I liked the image which ended up not being very abstract at all.
I think this is the painting that was meant to be. The images of the trees and building (cabin? barn?) and water emerged over the course of several hours. There were versions of it that were abstract, but I'd scrape off part of it and start over, and work a little more, take a photo and make changes - and it kept evolving until I ended up with this. I love that the colors are a little quirky.
I want to do a very large (24 x 48 - which is large for me) painting to put in Ron's and my bedroom. My thought in doing the painting below was that it would be a miniature of what I'd paint for the bedroom. I think it will be the inspiration for the larger painting, but not the same image.

LOVE this, Carol!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joan. If the paint is still workable later today, I will get the curve out of the water.For some reason, each time I look at it, that curve pops out at me.

ReplyDeleteRegardless of whether you're taking some time off or realize you'll be brandishing swimsuits a ton all through the whole summer, playing out a wax will assist you with swaggering your stuff straightforward.
