NOT A PAINTING, but a sweater...

 Yellow Sweater flower detail

I work everyday to create SOMETHING!  Some days I need to stop one thing and move to another...it clears my artist cobwebs out and leaves me fresh to paint again another day...Today's cobweb clearing came in the form of a re-make on an old yellow sweater...It was fun and helped the cloudy day go by faster! 


I changed out the boring tan buttons for black, added black stitching, the flower and buttons on either side of the front center...and
tucked it in a bit in the back with another big ole button!!  FUN!

100 OIL PORTRAITS IN 100 DAYS - Rachel, 58/100, © Carol Nelson Fine Art


Day 58
This is Rachel with the lovely brown eyes and the pretty smile. I painted her on a panel with a black underpainting. I wanted her face to be emerging from the darkness into the light. I think it looks like that.I learn something on every painting. I used to "suggest" the teeth and paint them loosely. Now I find myself being much more precise on the teeth. If you look VERY CAREFULLY at the photo, you will see that all the teeth are in shadow except the two incisors on the sunny side where the bottom of each tooth is in sunlight. This is easily overlooked in painting, but it is important to show how the sun lights up the all the features of the face.
For purchase information, please see my website.

About the patients: Neither Mark or Morris has had any appetite to speak of, until suddenly on Friday evening they both were hungry. I think that's a good sign. Also, I kicked Morris in the butt (figuratively speaking) and made him get dressed and take a walk, which he did twice. The human body is made to move. Laying on the bed or sofa will turn you into a vegetable and will not speed the healing process - you may quote me.

Untitled 11 by Jala Pfaff


My oil abstracts have definitely divided themselves into two different styles or techniques: the thick, layered, scraped-into kind; and the smooth, thin glazed type (which I have just started to explore, in debt to and in awe of Rothko).

"CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE" by Char Davis



"CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE"
Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas
15"x30"
$300.00 US, framed

I thought I might try a few acrylic landscapes....acrylic is so forgiving!  Had so much fun painting this piece; it's colorful and fun.  Just the shape and size of the canvas makes it fun to look at!  There are so many layers of paint and you can really see and feel the texture.  I'm not sure that I would always paint this way because I love oil painting too much...but sometime something different is good for the creativity!
Thanks for looking today.

If you are interested in this painting, please contact me.

Jaipur 4 by Jala Pfaff


Even though I'm more of a "rectangles" kind of abstract painter, lately some interestingly organic shapes have been creeping in. I don't know where they're coming from, but as long as they make themselves useful, they can stay.

100 OIL PORTRAITS IN 100 DAYS -Stape, 52/100, © Carol Nelson Fine Art


Day 52

This is Stapleton Kearns, professional landscape painter living in New England. I first became aware of Stape's writing through his postings in Fine Art Views, a free art newsletter published by Clint Watson.
Stape's blog is a learning experience with wonderful examples of composition fundamentals and a wealth of artful tips. You should definitely bookmark his blog.
I had such fun painting this portrait of Stape taken by one of his students at one of his snow camp workshops. There's so many fun things in the photo - the two hats, the glasses, the condensation on his mustache, and fabulous lighting.
For purchase information, please see my website or email me at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net.


Don't forget, VOTING on portraits 41-50 ends tonight. Pick your favorite and email me your choice. THANKS!
