Color

Using new colors (for me) is the goal today. I am trying to use colors that I have not favored in the past; they have been in my paint box for a while, and I still seem to go back to the same old ones. Of course, I see that I am still putting some of the old favorites into the painting. At least I am starting with something different.

Summertime

Continuing to work with grids now and expressing the bright/light colors of summer, I am trying to do a series of high-key work to show what this extra hot summer is like. Bright colors are soon turning to brown in this heat, but we do still have some wonderful scenes.

Without A Plan

I am continuing to paint intuitively, without a plan. I just pick colors that I like and start in with painting. I am stressing texture, line and color - or lack of color. Also, much removing and covering up is done. Wonder where this will end up!
