Figure Contest

3-18x24 inch oils on canvas

Time to take a chance and enter into a contest. It is $35 dollars for three works of art, so the loss is pretty minimal. I could have entered a watercolor or drawing but thought I would keep it consistent and send all oils. It is hosted out of St Louis, Mo bye Fontbonne University Fine Arts Gallery. I picked this contest because, first I have to start somewhere and second I really really like one of the three jurors, Alex Kanevsky. So wish me luck!!!!!

Figure Painting

11.5x15 inch watercolors
It is the holidays and everyone came out to paint tonight. And wow what a great model, I was feeling festive and gave her the vertical painting because she commented on it. Was able to grab a snapshot to share. I have not painted the figure in watercolors for a while, it was fun.

Bad Reproductions

22x28 inch watercolor
Well I think this painting has some great aspects, but you could never tell by the bad reproduction. I need to solve this problem some day, but until then I will just post what I can.
