Dear Subscribers,

Greetings!

New still life. My first painting of 2013, in fact.

The setup:


First stage: (I was on a roll so I neglected photos at the very beginning)
Added a small guy on the right for better composition. The kettlebell is such a pleasing shape to paint.


Next stage:


At the beginning of the painting I put out my full palette of colors because I wasn't sure what I'd end up needing. As it turned out, not much. For the second sitting I only put out the colors I'd used thus far. A limited palette of ivory black, ultramarine blue, burnt umber, yellow ochre, cad yellow medium, cad lemon, and titanium white.





And the finished painting, "Iron & Glass" (9x12):
