painted one lazy afternoon while lounging in my backyard.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I've always loved painting in acrylics
because of its fast drying and setup qualities. Doing quick sketch
studies with this medium is great because you can throw down a wash or value
setting and then lay an opaque layer on top and go
from there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s been a long time since
I last used acrylics and had to re-acquaint myself to the value shifts between
wet and dry colours. I did this one on a scrape piece of
illustration board that I cut up into smaller pieces for this purpose some
time ago. I will definitely be doing a lot more of these in the time
to come as I think this is a good exercise for the 'o hand, eye and brain
noodle-thingy-communication.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">This is another angle of the rusted out 1940's Packard I photographed while in Jerome, Az. again, it had a lot of character so I took a whole oft of photos. Painting this was interesting in translating smooth to semi smooth surfaces along with heavily rusted areas to a canvas panel.</span><br />

I think this would hold up better that an actual photograph of my mug... might

I stayed loose in the approach to this painting and wanted to stay free form
without regard to actual details and focus on the essence. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most likely, this will be my direction in

Birthday" and brought the house down in a bluesy improved rock

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The photo doesn't quite do it justice but I love how the hues came out in this painting. I like the small vase and knew that one day I was going to paint it. Then one day my wife brought some cuttings in from the yard and that sparked my interest right away. I had to paint them before they started to wilt. I haven't painted in over a year due to a massive kitchen remodeling and a hectic production schedule from various studios I contract with. So this makes a great piece to kick off with back into the painting mode.</span></div>
