7x5 oil on panel
$100 + s/h - sold
I tried a couple of different things today and wiped them off. I think I was starting with something too ambitious after having been on hiatus. And while having limited time to work. My schedule couldn't be more full this week. I needed to pull back and just do something simple and allow myself to see and paint loosely. As a note, I often work from photos, but I squint quite a bit when looking at them and when looking at my painting. I'm going to be very wrinkly when I get old I think. There must be a better way!
Disregard my gloved thumb in the lower section of the painting. Its late and I'm too lazy to edit it out.
Gorgeous piece! Loose is good !!
