Original Oil painting miniature ACEO

Titled: “Green Eyes”

Thought on blogging about My story, about Why I paint?  to do a video blog about it, but then again who would want to hear?  That wile I was breast feeding with one hand… the other one was drawing and painting…..

The  ACEOS go by theme, what interest me in the morning since I first put my pen on paper, was it a face? that song…, So they are in fact very important is my life, glimpse of the reality. Yesterday, the (dog) Cassie saw a wild cat, she barked and barked… but then again she is scared of the vacuum, funny huh?

Oil painting study

 

Bailando tango

The not so simple task of composition in a developing  painting, some come out as paintings some don’t make it… but the idea is passed on to the next, at the moment re arrange or positioning the figures in the case of the sketch, 9” by 8” how both subjects interact with each other is important.  The idea for the next oil painting.  After, the 20” watercolor is finished, put on hold for the past weeks since my health being on a storm.

Explaining in details  the technical part of painting is important, gives an idea to the viewer about the research, time dedicated and value. 

 

 

 

Oil flower painting work in progress

 

The painting size 16” by 20” on canvas, is going in to stages at the moment,  just lay down the colors that would be played by other layers of other colors, going with the flow with this one, not planning  to much, time does not allowed it.  The background being a busy one, follow to remedy with centering the flower. Some of the leaves are flowing in a circular motion to help the view.  Eventually will add more flowers around, will see if it works. On the meant time here is the  work in progress. 

Cuando comienza uno con una pintura, pensar mucho en como va hacer el resultado resulta un poco presuntuoso, Creo que las sorpresas y el invento ejercita el cerebro.  Por eso el preocuparme en conectar la pintura no es importante en este momento. De los errores es que se aprende. El movimiento entre las ramas y las hojas de la planta dan el suficiente efecto visual.  Hasta ahora, es lo unico planeado hasta este momento.
