I did two acrylics today too- not sure if either is done.  Both will take some time to dry.

My first foray into oil paint- a simple experimentation with color, texture, and wet-on-wet blending.

I really enjoy the color intensity and feel of oil paints, though acrylics are a heck of a lot more convenient to use and clean up.

My Father’s Day present. My kids took me for a day where I could paint plein air, which I’ve never done before. I wanted to paint @ Morrow Mountain but the storm damage was bad (like a hurricane) and the park was closed. Instead, we drove down to Wagram and painted the Lumber River.

I’m tired, I’m covered in paint, I got fajitas in my belly, and my girls are right here. Best. Father’s. Day. Ever.

Drawing, 3/23/2009.

 

The poem on the right reads in English:

 

August

Morning sun, Lightning! Thunder!

Wind, rain, death.

 

This came to me in Japanese, which is weird because I know almost no Japanese. I really can’t explain that.
