Oil Painting #9 -- "Brown Eyed Susans At Sunset"

It took my usual four hours,

and even then I wasn't very happy with it.

The backlit flowers were tough.

And the fading background was surprisingly hard.

"Watching The Sunset"

"Tile Replacement Day"

Oil Painting #8 -- "Carton Of Eggs"

I think this turned out well.

4-5 hours.

A good exercise in light and shadow.

I see more paintings of eggs in my future.

"New Yard Ornament"

"Icy Mix"

"Perfect February Day"

"What Are You Lookin' At?"

"Post & Barbed Wire #1"

Oil Painting #7 -- "Fuschia & Teal Rooster"

 I did the rooster in four sittings of one hour each.

The photo above is after the third sitting,

just needed to complete the background and some details.

The completed painting.

I did fuschia and teal to do an exercise doing values in 

colors other than the "real" colors.

"Icy Ribbon"
