Italy Cafe

Struggling to create bigger paintings that keep a loose quality. This is 16 x 20.  Not too happy with it but I think I have to struggle through the process.

last two landgrove

 My last two demos at Landgrove Inn.  The horses are oil and the street scene pastel.  Both were done with the concept of seeing things only as shapes...abstracting what you are looking at in order to create an illustrative painting

 Once again I had an amazing time teaching figure in oils and pastels at Landgrove Inn in Londonderry, VT.  A gorgeous inn with amazing food and hospitality.  We paint from a live model for two days then from photos of figures in an environment for two.  I'll post those tomorrow.  Here are some of my demos.
