What Fish?

This is the latest still life from the painting class I am taking.  The object was to paint glass and glass reflections.  I had this glass cat with the fish in its belly and I thought it would make for a funny still life with an empty fish bowl.  I basically used thalo blue, grumbacher red, lemon yellow, and a little burnt sienna.  Oh and paynes gray for the fish fins.  It was a fun painting!  It was painted on a 12x12 stretched canvas.

Mystic Still Life

Last month I re-started the painting class that I  withdrew from in 2009.  That is why not many posts last month.  This is a still life from that class.  The assignment was something shinny.  I chose two crystal balls.  One is a quartz crystal, not quite clear, and the other is a smokey quartz crystal, not quite clear.  It appears that the painting is not quite dry.
It is painted on a 12x12 stretched canvas.

Still Life With Onions

I figured if I didn't name the painting after the onions, no one would be able to figure out that there were onions in the bowl!  This is another painting from the alla prima class.  I forget the order and I may have incorrectly stated the order in the other posts.  Next class, I will label the paintings with numbers so I can remember the order in which they were painted.

Still Life With Mangos and Peppers

Another painting from the alla prima class is this Still Life With Mangos and Peppers.  The painting was painted in May 2011.  It is on a 9x12 stretched canvas painted in oils.

Blue Still Life

This is the third painting from the alla prima class that I took in the spring of this year (2011).   I sure did enjoy that class and I signed up to take it later this summer.  It is on a 9x12 stretched canvas and was painted in oils.
