30 Day Painting Challenge: Day 7: Tarnished

Tarnished
12x12 oil on linen panel
$390
                                                              

Day 7: WHEW! This was an all day wrestle!!! I think I won...you tell me! Again my aim was juicy pieces of color while still remaining fresh. Because of the gray teapot surface I kept just getting mud. I really needed to keep the values right while changing out color. I was tempted to give up on this a number of times so I took a break...took a nap...walked the dog. I kept going back to the easel determined to have my way with this piece. Tomorrows got to be easier...right???

    Hi Wendie - you worked that pot detail so nicely! It really does appear tarnished. Gotta be a difficult one. I hear ya on the pressure - at first I thought, hey 30 in 30, no problemo - but with each day, it is pulling more on my creativity and skill and idea line. Paint on!
