Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "Pumpkin on Blue"

CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY     10/29/13
"Pumpkin on Blue" - 6x6in. -  click to bid

  
I hadn't painted any cloth folds in a while, so I thought I'd take my newly acquired pumpkin and combine it with something difficult and blue. Interestingly, the most challenging part ended up being the totally smooth pumpkin. For me the ones with grooves down the side seem easier. Crazy.

This is another gal from San Francisco, this one on her lunch break, sneaking in a good book. She keeps looking at her watch, dreading giving up her book because it's at a pivotal moment and she simply has to find out if Claire forgives Jonathon!

Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "Too Cool For School"

CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY     10/25/13
"Too Cool for School" - 6x6in. -  click to bid

  
I spotted these two in San Francisco on a bench near the water. The seemed like the epitome of San Fran Cool! Especially their shoes. She was wearing these weird high tops with pink laces and he was wearing leather dress shoes (with his t-shirt and jeans) and no socks. This is why I'm not allowed to live there - I'm not cool enough for that.

On a more painterly note, I had so much fun suggesting the background. In the photo it was very busy, and my goal was to subdue it so it didn't take attention away from the people, My solution was to change the values (only in the background) so there were only subtle shifts. I'm quite pleased with the result!

Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "You're a Delicate Flower"

CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY     10/24/13
"You're a Delicate Flower" - 6x6in. -  click to bid

  
I don't know what kind of flower this is, but I love the shape of the petals, especially the ones on top that look like hearts from this angle. It was also really fun trying to suggest the sticky-outy parts in the middle.

My 2014 San Antonio workshop is full, but (fyi) if a spot opens up at any time, everyone on the wait list is notified at the same time, so ... get on it!
