Contemporary Health Care Medical Art Paintings "The Seeker" by Contemporary Realism Artist Carol A. McIntyre




As I paint these bones with the intent to inspire viewers to consider their bone health, I am always looking for ways to send this message. In this painting - The Seeker - I thought it would be fun to position the arm and leg bones in a fun position.

Does it appear as if this skeleton is about to spring or take off? Could you position your body like this?

In order for us to maneuver, we need our nervous system. Hence, I included neurons in the background. The internal glow is to draw you into the painting as well as your own body.  I made one neuron glow more than the others as if the hand is seeking this energy in order to take-off.

Don't forget to look for the marble....:)

KMA2961 Orange Zest by Colorado Contemporary artist Kit Hevron Mahoney (12x12 acrylic, abstract floral)

This is another of my abstract floral still life paintings that was done as an exploration into creating paintings that have less detail but say more. It is a challenge to work mostly intuitively on these. Many of these start with some sort of reference but soon take on their own lives once I let go and let them dictate the direction. I have this painting at my Denver art gallery and studio, Brushstrokes Studio-Gallery. Now that summer is coming to an end and I finish my great commissions, I will be getting back to more of these as they indeed, do challenge me! 12"x12" original acrylic on panel board unframed $550 + $35 shipping and handling See more paintings on my blog Visit my website  Daily Painters of Colorado Brushstrokes Studio-Gallery

"KITCHEN SCENE" 11008 daily painter still life © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"KITCHEN SCENE"

It felt so good to do this painting.  I have not done an oil painting yet this year, except for that manikin study a couple days ago.

Although I love acrylics, with all the fabulous mediums and effects you can achieve, there is no substitute for the luscious "paintability" of oils.  It's such fun to push the paint around.

Here we have two of my big black coffee mugs sitting on the counter with an apple and an orange - it was kind of an oval looking orange, but an orange none the less.  The warm tones and reflections inspired me.

Oh God, I'm flip flopping again.  Abstraction back to realism. Forgive me, dear readers, if you tuned in expecting to see an abstract composition.  There is one on the easel, however.  

As I was doing this painting, I was cursing my brushes.  I am the world's foremost abuser of brushes.  My acrylic brushes sit in water for weeks. As luck would have it, there is an art supply/framing store near me that is going out of business - 70% off art supplies.  I BOUGHT 26 BRUSHES!  WOO HOO. Back in business.

Three's a Crowd - Still life oil painting by Sharon Schock - 6x12

I can't think of a whole lot to write about this one.... I wanted it to be simple and I wanted it to be colorful. And I love orange and blue together, so tangerines were an obvious choice :)
