I was asked to do this little portrait of a friend of mine for her mom.
8 x 10 oil on board
I plan to post current paintings on my blog site. I'm not much of a writer but I do love to paint. I do oils and pastels and I teach workshops. I plan to sometimes post demos and talk about how to create a painting as well. Please check out my website at www.alineordman.com
May was a busy month! I taught workshops in Black Mountain, NC, Hilton Head, SC and East Aurora, NY
My North Carolina and East Aurora workshops were all plein air and my Hilton Head was inside. Here are some of my demos. I must say I felt so welcome everywhere and had wonderful students!
Busy month! I flew to Ashville in the beginning of May and taught a really fun workshop in Black Mountain, North Carolina. It was a plein air figure in the landscape. Then I went on to Hilton Head for a pastel only workshop. I was so fortunate to be with wonderful people and my hosts in both places were the best!
Here are some of my demos
I had a fun workshop in figure in the environment in pastels in Barre, VT. Here is my 9 x 12 demo
I struggled to create these two portraits of a friend's children to thank him for a great kindness and fun day in California. Tried a few in pastel but settled on these oils in the end.
