"Bottoms Up"

6x6", oil on canvas board

I thought I'd do a painting with more subdued colors. I've noticed that I really like hot colors, which is fine for the small works. After all, when it's only 6x6" or 8x8", it might need more punch. But I was finding that I didn't know how to do something more low key. Hence some practice. I'm also exploring fuzzy edges.

  4. Hi Linda. Thank you for your kind words. Since I do both small still lifes and larger abstracts, I don't know if I'm an orange or a zebra. And I like your work! So charming! Cheers!
