New Photo of #36 "You 'n Me"

"You 'n Me", Watercolor, Acrylic & Ink, 500# Paper, 5"x 5" SOLD

"You 'n Me" I'm posting last night's painting again. I had a chance to photograph it today in the natural sunshine; the best way to really capture the true colors. If you compare it to last night's blog, you'll really see the difference. Today I painted a flute with a keyboard and a rose. In the last 1/2 hour, I decided that it needs to go to the dead painting pile. The concept and composition were good and I was pleased with my first painted flute. When I got to adding the drizzled acrylic over the top, it just went on wrong. This goal of 50 paintings has had it's casualities and today's was the fifth fatality. I guess it says that I'm human and shows that with daily paintings sometimes "it is what it is". Fresh start tomorrow!  

#36 of 50 "You 'n Me"

"You 'n Me" Someone recently told me that he plays bass and his wife plays piano. I wanted to try to capture what we hear in the notes by blending the 2 instruments together to form "You 'n Me". It's 7pm here and I just finished it. I wish there was sunshine to photograph it because it really pops. Today my cowboy and I went to Hudson Street Wineries to measure the walls and check out the space for my show. I brought a framed piece so we could really visualize the wall space. The winery owner wanted to buy it! It's going to be so amazing to see all 50 pieces up on the wall together. It was busy there today because it is "Barrel Tasting". You can catch it again next weekend. Check it out at: hudsonstreetwineries.com.
