STUDIO UPDATE: Getting there...


My painting week in photos:

Just after writing my Paint Party Friday blog post last week, new art supplies arrived in the mail! 

 'Not your Ordinary Madam' and two other paintings found new homes where they will be treasured.

Here's the Fabrino 'Tela' Oil Paper in use, it's such a high quality paper, I'm very impressed.

The practice trees for the top left need a few branches before I paint them on the large piece.

The colour guide for the different values of the foliage.

Happy Paint Party Friday all!
Enjoy your weekend xx

    You had such a productive week in the studio and I can't wait to see those trees go onto the canvas... the colour studies were such a great exercise and are going to make the final piece even more special...xx

    I love getting a chance to see the process! I don't ever seem to be that organized--I especially like the color swatches--

    Happy Paint Party Friday!

    That is such a great painting. Color, expression on her face and then that funny appendage. It's truly wonderful and it brings a smile to my face. Love it - HPPF
