Week 9 A great photo challenge from Karin Jurick. For this weeks painting, I ventured into the unknown and tried water mixable oils. What a difference from working with acrylics. The blending and redos seem a lot easier (because you can wipe, scrape or brush away the bad paint) and the subtleties seem more natural. Could be hooked here.
I need to see this beauty in person......(obama's new house)....hehehe see ya soon. Don
ReplyDeleteYour painting of the US Capitol glows and reminds me a little of Guy Wiggins-one of the America's best! I have to finish two other paintings and may have to skip this weeks challenge assignment.
ReplyDeleteThe blending effect you've achieved is wonderful! Just thought I'd let you know this is not actually the "White House"- Easy mistake for a Canadian to make.
Oops, well it is white. Thanks Alice for the comments. I'll have to check out Guy Wiggins. Sounds like you have a busy week.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Vern! I always LOVE your entries and look forward to seeing them each week...
ReplyDeleteKeep those brushes flying!
your "capitol" was one of the best. Nice to see your blog up and running .
ReplyDeleteYour Capitol was my favorite!
ReplyDeleteHi Torre, thanks for the big thumbs up. Are you itching to do this weeks challenge?
