CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY 6/7/17 |
|
This was another one I did from one of my France reference photos. I just love the tiny, cute cars over there. For our artist caravan we rented the biggest cars they had, which were nothing compared to America's big cars/vans! Here is a photo of a few of my kiddos from that workshop. They were supposed to be out taking photos, but I caught them slacking off. They were like, "Hey, we're in France!" Can you blame them?
When I got into my very first gallery, a seasoned artist took me aside and said he liked my work. But that he could tell I was painting from photographs. This guy (Gordon) gave me my very first plein air easel and sent me packing. He also gave me a pep talk, which included suggesting that even though one could paint a beautiful trash can, one shouldn't expect it to sell. Well, that's a long story to say - this view of the barn is a little ... odd, and maybe, a little like a trash can? But I really like it. So, I'm posting it, but I'm going to start the bidding at $1.
