Interior 2

Finished! I liked it until I saw the picture below...


Now that it's finished, I like this version the best. I can't see me going out there and "unpainting" all that, though.





I loved my first shot at an interior/exterior so much, I'm trying another. I am not sure where these images come from. These are in process, wet paint, poor light, but I like the painting so far!


Got up this morning and really didn't like the green and preferred the underpainting, so my first job was getting rid of the green!

Cities!

NYC in Red for Sandi, 2013

Chicago with Peter, 1981

Not my usual style or subject matter, but there is precedent for this kind of painting. Years ago I did a city scape of Denver in handmade paper and water color, and before that was this amazing thing of Chicago as it felt to me during/after my visit to an extremely problematic boyfriend.
