Paintings

I thought I would save showing my artwork from this term until the end (basically I was just too lazy to take pictures of them throughout the term). Ok, really there's one more that I'm working on these next 2 weeks, but that one will follow later. Well, here they are....

We first started out with a still life. I had a gourd on a crumpled paper bag. We had to zoom in on each of the following paintings. All 3 are oil on paper, 22" X 30".

Black and white (we had to make the black out of colors--that was cool)

Complimentary colors (meaning opposite on the color wheel) I used orange and blue. (the cool orange and cool blue I used made an olive tone when mixed)

We got to choose what colors for the 3rd. Mine are blue, green, and yellow.

The next 2 are from collages that we had to make first. (I don't particularly love making collages). Both are oil on canvas, 16" X 20".

I was happier with this one....I liked how the rocks turned out, they have a lot of volume.

Next, a series that we were able to choose what we wanted to work on. I was working on being looser with my brush strokes. All 3 are oil on canvas, 16" X 20".
