Dear Subscribers,

 

Greetings!

 

There is 1 spot left in my July 5-6 workshop
 . 

 

New workshop announcement:

I have a still life painting workshop scheduled for the weekend of Feb.

  in Lindale, Texas. Space is
limited to only 8 spots. If you are interested, please contact Maureen
Killaby directly at [email protected]   ph:(903) 830-6694

 

New cityscape.

The setup. Here is one of the original reference photos. I love Smith
Tower:

 
 

 

And this is after cobbling together a few pics for a larger view,
followed by some digital manipulation:

 
 

 

First stage. Starting like this used to scare me. Now I love it, because
I know I'll be able to pull it out from the chaos:

 
 

 

Next stage:

 
 

 

And the finished painting, "Legend On Yesler"
  (20x16):

 . This painting
will be a part of my One Man Show at RS Hanna Gallery
  in October!

 

Mid-week I started a still life, then abandoned it at this stage:

 

 
 

 

It was somewhat uninspired, just going through the motions...and it
shows. Sometimes it takes a quick (or sometimes a not-so-quick) failure
to snap you back on the right path. It took this wipe-out to make me
realize I was still in full cityscape mode, so that's where I went.

 

Another cityscape is currently in the works. 

 

JUST SOLD!:

  

"Chameleon"  

 

Until next week,
