Workshop
I went to a workshop with Jeremy Lipking. It was fun to see his studio and all the beautiful art. His wife, Danielle was a wonderfully nice person. The time went by fast and I hope that I picked up some new ideas. I think that the one thing that I came away with that was most important was to take my time with the initial decisions whether I am setting up a figure or a still life. All in all, it was pretty expensive.

Tall Teapot
This is a painting that I painted when I had taken too much cough and migraine medicine. I had a hard time focusing on all of the information that I have learned through the years. I think that it helped that I could not focus well. I thought only about shape and color and absolutely nothing else. I can really see how Walt Disney, Lewis Carroll and so many others may have been more successful in an altered state. I am not advocating this though as I really didn't like feeling so out of control. I'll be reading the dosage information more carefully from here on out.
Hope you enjoy. I would love to know what you think or if you have had any similar experiences.

Rainy days and puddles step 2 and 3
Here I placed the darks while maintaining the lights. I used only three main colors and naples yellow and a little white. It was a challenge to keep the values while working with such a limited palette. My palette consisted of a cool purple, warm red and a warm green. The colors were pre mixed.
Hope this gives you ideas to try.
Thank you for following this demonstration. I will post the final painting soon.
