Summer’s End WIP9

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood Reserved for Mayberry Fine Art Ooh I hit one of the other edges – always a milestone for me. I’ve got a bit more of these dark plants to do, but really I’m dreaming of clouds and the far shore…

Summer’s End WIP8

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood Reserved for Mayberry Fine Art I’ve been painting for five days in a row. Unheard of! I’m going to try to post a wip every two days or so, although I really don’t want to stop long enough to post – lol. I’m having some [...]

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood Busman’s Holiday – yay! The wips will be coming fast and furious over the next two weeks as I am on holiday in my studio, with nothing but painting and the occasional nap in store for me. My master plan is to actually finish this [...]

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood Back to the dark side for this session. Slowly filling in the foreground. Soon I will hit another patch of greenery. And also the light will hit the top of these darks a bit. That will be fun. Did I mention it’s really big?

Summer’s End WIP3

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood I really needed to see the light oranges and pastels in the context of the rest of the painting, so that’s where I went. I think it’s going to work well; the sun is hitting that patch and providing  a nice counterpoint to the foliage [...]

Summer’s End WIP2

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood Moving right down into some of the foreground green foliage. I think one of the biggest challenges in this painting is to keep all the colours working together, so I need to get them on the panel pronto! Next session will involve some yellows and [...]

Summer’s End WIP1

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood I have been waiting to start this painting for a while now – I haven’t done a really big painting since last summer! I originally wanted it for the Oshawa show but I knew I wouldn’t finish it on time. Outside it’s 37 celsius but [...]
