Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "Wiggly Walk"

I think I am setting a new personal record - fewest posts ever! And I hate it because it means I'm also not painting much. BUT, the reasons for it are all good. My excuse this past week was a workshop in Springfield, OR. I had a great group of kids, mostly well behaved,all willing to go out on limbs and try new things. This group wins the most-courageous award!  

  

  

Above are a few pictures of my kids hard at work. If you click to see the larger version you will notice some squinting, which I made sure to tell them to do at least 13 times (the magic number)!

 

Below is our group shot. There was no one else around so I had to rig my camera to take the picture and then run in. They waited so long on those stairs I decided to only take one picture - and then it turns out I stuck my head in front of one of my kids! Sorry!

I had a great time with you guys - thanks for everything!

As for the painting above, I took the photo for it on a hike around Mesa Verde National Park a few years ago. The gal is my stepdaughter, Sophie, who I've been thinking about a lot lately. She is the brand new mother of Nina, my new granddaughter. We are off to see them tomorrow, in Texas, for a week. I am a tiny bit ahead with my paintings, so I'll post those as time allows.

The photo for this was taken at Slide Rock State Park, just outside of Sedona. She was watching her loved ones slide down the rocks along the river, in the frigid water - crazy! I was happy to be plein air painting, but paused long enough to snap a photo of her. The background was a big slab of rock in shadow, but I was happy to change it into something fairly abstract. : )

These guys are auditioning for the circus and this is the completion of their first act! Do you think they'll get the job?

By the way, my latest abstract is kinda still-life-ish, so I thought I'd share it here.
