I took a break from the blog for about a week. I’m back, I’m rested and I’m painting.
PORTRAIT SERIES
After exploring the Still Life in depth, I have begun to miss my roots. This is a the first piece of the new series.
The Plan
- To explore upclose and personal portraits of friends, family and flowers.
- Paint or draw daily
- Do a variety of images, in a variety of styles
- Post as soon as a piece is completed
- Group them into themes.
As you can see from this image, the theme for this one is FLOWERS. I’ve painted Hydrangea II Close in the photorealistic style. I will also be exploring the same image in different styles. In the end, I will probably have a new question. Should I group them by style, or group them by type (ie. Flowers, people, architecture) My hope is that once the series is complete, I will include you in the decision of style or type.
Come back often, watch the process and be a part of the evolution of this project. It’s fun to know that you are out there and watching. And…I really appreciate your comments.
