I can't believe how rusty I am at this. Hopefully, I won't have to start this post again from scratch...
I'm thinking about delving into the online posting business again. Why not? I'm painting, interest is starting to build in the art collecting community, why not go back to some of those tried n true methods of exposure?
While I study up on the nuances of
Daily Paintworks and their online art auctions, I'm going to work on my blogger skills, too. Here goes.
"Fighters" - 8x8"oil
otherwise known as "Siamese Fighting Fish Meets Samurai Warrior"
"Anyone Can Draw" classes at the Barn begin again April 15, 6:30 to 9:00 pm. This seven week class is great for beginner or intermediate skills. We cover everything from value to perspective to composition and more. Class fee is $130. For more information, just email me: janwrites@fuse.net
Finally back to the easel! Life has been a bit overwhelming this fall. If it hadn't been for Margaret reminding me I had a deadline for this piece, it would still be a blank canvas. This is 24 x 30" and a bit bigger than my usual work. The scene is a statue of Cincinnatus at T. Berry International Park. If you aren't familiar, it's at the Ohio end of the Purple People Bridge.
Fountain Square is one of my favorite scenes downtown. When I was invited to bring my work to Starbucks in Blue Ash and paint on the scene, I decided to take the image with me. It was kind of like bringing along an old friend. The challenge this time was to fit all this activity into an 8 x 10" surface.
