Oysters

 A 6 x 6 inch painting of oyster shells

Along the River...no green

This pastel was a demo in my class to show how to work from a photo or landscape but change the colors so that no major color from the photo is really in the final painting.  It is an exercise in understanding value and intensity of colors in relation to the overall painting.

Two horseracing demos

Decanter

This decanter and stopper were the demo from oil painting class on Monday.  Continuing the idea of painting without a pre conceived notion of what it is, just looking at shapes, color and value.  The students did quite well!
