“But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.” - Isaiah 53:5-6

"Ladybugs on Yucca Flowers", by Karla Nolan, palette knife, brush oil painting on linen panel

Okay, I'm going to toot my horn on this particular painting, as I am extremely proud of it.  I wanted to go a more simple route with lighter colors and still have an impact.  Painting a light wash in oil first, then gradually adding the buds and flowers of the yucca bush, and layering on several ladybugs did the trick for me.  I hope you like it as much as I do!  And....yes, it's a great price, a great deal!  So there!!!

"Ladybugs on Yucca Flowers", 10"x8""  palette knife and brush oil painting on linen panel, sold unframed, $100 includes s/h in U.S., to be determined elsewhere at time of sale; please write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information

I have set up a second website, Paintings On Glass, to showcase my paintings on glass.  There is a piece in progress as I type with sailboats.  That's a true challenge, showing proper structure and making the water look good.  Be sure to check it out, along with my new blogspot, listed below.

CLOUD PAINTING BY TOM BROWN


“Capture the fugitives,” I tell students, “before they escape.” Passing clouds are an example. They can disappear long before the painting is finished so it’s important to capture them at the start. That’s what I did in this painting during a workshop I taught for other plein air painters.


We baked in hot sun, then shivered when briskly moving clouds covered the sky. The weather itself provided the inspiration for this one painted on location at Pioneer Park last Saturday morning.


I call this 6x8 inch oil painting “ESCAPE ARTISTS”. Thanks for looking, and have a day filled with sunshine. As always, comments are welcome: tombrownstudio@cox.net

"Symphonic Splendor" By Jill Saur



© 3/2011 "Symphonic Splendor" by Jill Saur, all rights reserved





This 3 ft. by 3 ft. painting is a commission that I just finished.  It is vibrant and uplifting and the blues really make for a great backdrop!  My clients are going to hang this in their brand new home over their river rock fireplace in their main living area.  A painting like this brings a lot of life and warmth into a room and serves to be a focal point.  They gave me a piece of pottery with all these colors in it and a color chart of colors they will use as accents in their home and kitchen.  I prepared a palette of colors and met with them to have them approve what I came up with.  

The next step for me was to design a composition that they would like based on what they told me they wanted.  After I completed several drawings, I emailed them two or three different compositions and they approved one of them with a few changes.  

Since the husband had ideas that he wanted and the wife had ideas that she wanted, I listened to what they both liked and combined both into a preliminary 18"x18" painting that they just loved.  After all of this is done, I don't even have to think twice as to whether a client will like what I do for them.  I was very happy to have them visit my studio this past weekend and have them tell me that they love it!

"Flowing Light" Original Oil Painting by Niki Gulley
36" x 60"

You walk down a path sheltered by autumn drenched trees, intrigued by the light flowing through the leaves and branches, casting shadows, colors changing with each gentle breeze, sunlight cascading down your pathway. Peaceful, tranquil this painting flows around the canvas capturing the memory of autumn: lush crisp colors, crunchy leaves and a walk through the woods Walt Whitman would have envied. "Flowing Light" is oil on canvas, 36" x 60" and is available for purchase.

To see "Flowing Light" and more of my textured palette knife oil paintings in person, stop by my booth at Art City Austin, the premier juried outdoor art festival in Austin, TX, April 2-3.

Plein air painting in the desert by Becky Joy

This is a plein air, 11x14 oil, overlooking Lake Pleasant, which is northwest of Phoenix, AZ. Overall, I like the painting, but I do want to do some new composing. I don't like the shape of the road which leads off to the left. and the shadows of the tree and bushes could be more interesting and a little more shadow on the right. But, it will have to wait.
Right now I am in a workshop this week with Mark Daily. I am taking a Photoshop class at Scottsdale Artists School. A little frustrating today. I need to brush up more on my camera. I grabbed my manual, but didn't realize until I was in class that it was the Spanish manual. I can speak and read some Spanish, but a manual was too much. So, tomorrow it will be in English. Then the photoshop I didn't get one concept about threshold and moving the layers. Tonight I'm spending time with my photoshop manual. Back to school tomorrow. Hopefully, it all is a little more clear for me.
Talk to you all later.
Becky

"Absolute Joy" Mountain Stream by Jill Saur

©2011 "Absolute Love" by Jill Saur, all rights reserved


"Absolute Joy" is a 36"x36" commission that has taken me several months to complete.  My clients are going to hang this in the home they are building on top of a mountain.  They are such nice people, and it was a complete pleasure painting this for them.  I used my palette knife in the foliage in the trees.  There is quite a bit of texture that brings this painting to life.

I love water.  I am drawn to it and mesmerized by its sound, movement and colors.  It has been a long, cold, and very wet winter here in Georgia.  I look forward to this spring and summer and taking longs walks along the Chattahoochee River and a visit to the ocean as well.

Please visit my website to see more of my work.  I invite you to become a collector, and experience the joy of owning artwork that uplifts and inspires your soul!

Sunny Hunny-6"Squared Show! by Roxanne Steed



6"x6" oil on archival panel

"If you spend your whole life waiting for the storm, you'll never enjoy the sunshine."

-Morris West


Yes, it's been a while since I've posted, I writing from my "secondary office" in Starbucks in Maitland, FL. I'm down here for an intense week of helping out my mom. We're getting lots done, although I still need to tackle a door-bell repair and some bathroom caulking before I leave to go home tomorrow!

I haven't had a chance to share with you the super-good news I'm so excited about! I got one of my paintings juried into the Randy Higbee Gallery 6"Squared Show, in Costa Mesa, CA. A gala artist's reception will be held on April 16th, and the show runs through May 6th. "Sunny Hunny" is a 6"x6" oil, and I'm really honored and humbled to be able to hang with the wonderful artists in this show.

I'm heading back home to CT tomorrow, back to painting...and I'm looking forward to it!

Infusion by Texas Artist Kay Wyne

Infusion
SOLD
48" x 72"
This contemporary abstract traveled from Dallas to Santa Fe last week. Adieb Khadoure Fine Art sold Infusion to a collector from Florida, so it will be traveling again....I am thrilled that this piece has a new home. This color palette is a departure from what I usually use. As with many of my abstracts I started with a horizon line, used lots of paint, texture and movement. Thanks for viewing this blog...I will be painting plein air this morning with a small group of artists in downtown Dallas, then going to the studio to work on some commissions. Have a great day!

BLOCK-BUSTER ART TIPS AND PLEIN AIR PAINTING BY TOM BROWN



Shaking things up can bring new life to your work.

That’s what I did with this painting. Color and texture on the canvas became my real focus here.

I worked on a reddish toned canvas and allowed some of that undertone to remain visible between very bold strokes of thick, juicy color. (See the detail image.)

If you’re an artist who wants to “kick it up a notch” or break through the artist’s version of “writer’s block” you’ll benefit from my “50 BLOCK-BUSTER IDEAS”.

It’s my newest online lesson priced at just $20, and it’s delivered in PDF form via email.

Japanese Fish Vase by Roxanne Steed



6"x6" oil on archival panel

"Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare."

- Japanese Proverb


It's been a while since I've posted, I've been traveling again. I'm down in FL for an intense week of helping out my mom. So I haven't had much time for painting, or posting work, but I did finish this painting the morning before I caught my flight down here.

"Japanese Fish Vase" is a 6"x6" oil on archival panel that I've painted just for
"Daily Paintworks"- 'The Help Japan Challenge'. This painting is available at auction from their site, and I am donating the total proceeds to The Japanese Red Cross Society. Bidding for this painting starts at $100.

I've always loved pieces of blue and white Asian pottery and china in my home, and came across this unusual little vase last weekend in a wonderful little shop in Manhattan. It's small, roundish shape has a 'goldfish' swimming across the front of it, but it also has two raised faces coming out of opposite sides of the little vase. I knew right away when I brought it home, it would make a wonderful little painting for this challenge!

As of this writing, Daily Paintworks has raised $15,369 in just one week of selling paintings- going directly to help our neighbors in Japan. I challenge you to be a part of this aid as well!!

Pinkie and the Killers, Tulip Palette Knife Painting by Judy Mackey



"Pinkie and the Killers"
8" x  8" x 1.5", Oil on Canvas

Odd title for a painting?  There was a singing group in Japan in the '70's called Pinky and the Killer - at least I think Pinky was spelled with a "y"....Female lead singer with 4 men backup - kind of like Gladys Knight and the Pips.  They often dress in tux's and a Top Hat with canes.....I might have been reminiscing because of all the news from Japan.

When I posted this painting on FB, several alumni from my high school in Japan commented that they remembered the group and liked the title.

Well it's officially Spring now and tulips just feel so Spring.  Although I don't know if I can name just one flower to that honor....blooming trees, daffodils, hyacinths, all feel like Spring.

Have a lovely day!

SURF AND SUN BY TOM BROWN




For greater interest I suggested a hazy sun in the overcast sky and created physical texture in the surf. I’m including a photo of the scene for comparison with my interpretation.

This is another little gem done with a palette knife. If you’re wondering, no, I haven’t abandoned painting with brushes. But the past couple of days I featured palette knife paintings and wanted to show just one more. Tomorrow I’ll return to sharing my paintings done with brushes.

A Resident of the Woods......Palette Knife Painting by Peg Whitacre

While traveling out west it was often necessary to pull off the road simply to enjoy the views.  At one of these frequent stops, I noticed this lone bird sitting amid the beautiful woods quite close to the road.  Trusty camera at the ready, I was able to fire off this one shot.  The texture of the trees was perfect for the palette knife and with the exception of the bird itself, the painting was completed with the palette knife.  This painting  is oil on canvas, and is 16x14 in size.  It is available directly from the artist at pwhitacre@att.net.  Enjoy!

"Aqua Dreams," New textured oil painting by Niki Gulley

"Aqua Dreams" ©2011 Niki Gulley
36" x 60" textured oil on canvas

When we arrived at this tranquil spot, the early morning light was very cool in color, but as the sun began to rise from the horizon, it shone this beautiful warm light that shimmered on the water's surface and cast its hope of what was to come from the brand new day. I remember the peacefulness I felt in that moment, and a sense that anything was possible. In Aqua Dreams, by showing the contrast in the cool aqua/blues in the foreground waters against the warm golden glow on the distant pond's edge, I wanted to share that feeling of hope and promise communicated by nature.

Onset of Spring - Palette knife oil painting by Nithya Swaminathan

Is it any secret that I love the German spring? I simply can't get enough of it, and it is definitely my most favorite season of the year. The daffodils have been in bloom for more than a week now and I was waiting for some good sunshine to take pictures. Got some nice references of the flowers today and got to painting them.:) I missed painting the daffodils last year, so did not want to miss them this time around.

During spring, more than the flowers, I love the spring green of the leaves. It is so heartwarming to see leaves after the long barren winter. This year, touchwood, the winter in Germany has been rather short and extremely mild. We hardly had any snow after Christmas and the temperatures have been pretty mild.

Normally I can't stand a smudgy look; particularly with palette knife. But I let myself get into it with this one because it was pretty near dead anyway. I think I was able to eek out a fairly decent painting. What I remembered is that there can be many ways to make a painting vibrant with contrasting elements. Color: red/green; saturation: high/low; application: one direct stroke/multiple strokes; texture: flat/dimensional; value: dark/light; edge: hard/soft. I think the list could go on for a while, but you get the idea. Here I seem to have used color, application, value and edge contrasts - for whatever it's worth. It's a very unsaturated piece - at least for me. I mixed the dark from burnt sienna, hookers green, and sap green.
This is the last post until early next week because I'll be spending some time house sitting and won't be bringing my own computer along. I'll still be on email though. Ciao!

OK - I have to comment on how ironic it is that paintings I myself am over the moon about, don't necessarily send anyone else over the moon. In fact, almost without fail this seems to happen. I'm sure many other artists can relate to the period of questioning your validity as an artist, so I thought it was something worth mentioning. Now - I'm certainly not trying to solicit praise for my last post ;). Just sharing the irony of it. Thing is, I submitted the post to a juried show after carefully deciding which painting might be best. Ultimately I know we're not supposed to worry too much about how our artwork is received, but seriously - how does an artist trust their judgment of their own paintings? What a can of worms....

MORE ART COMMENTS BY TOM BROWN



Palette knife work is a wonderful marriage of realism and abstract painting. The bold strokes of luscious color carry impact and energy. It’s a pure joy and I always feel an adrenalin rush as I grab my knife and dive in.

If you’re an artist who has never tried it, do yourself a favor and give it a shot. It’s great fun.

But it’s critical to be able to handle COLOR well.

Colors are your vocabulary in the language of painting.
To become fluent in expressing yourself, you must learn color mixing until you can achieve any combination without hesitation.

Bold color or subdued color. “Optical” color mixtures. Warms and cools.

Then you can relax and let the painting unfold as if it’s painting itself.

I named this one:

ART COMMENTS BY TOM BROWN




I want a little jewel like this to have “wall power” when viewed from a distance. Big punch. But that’s not all.

Up close I want it to have an “intimate charm” to appreciate on a different level. Thick swirls of rich luscious paint are there to enjoy for the paint itself. It’s a completely different experience.
I like to paint for both viewing distances simultaneously. I feel it keeps a painting like this fresh and exciting day after day.

That’s why I named this one:

Subscribe now to receive my newsletter, "Even More".
I did the first "Clyde's Cattle" just about a year ago during a trip to GA with my girlfriends. I remember the day perfectly, and recall being ever so grateful that these particular cows stood still long enough for me to pencil them into the composition. That would have been just about 5 minutes. I was thrilled with the eventual outcome of that painting because it felt as though it unfolded magically, and really touched on so many of the quests I have in my painting. I had had a very long and dry spell of not being happy with much of anything that came off my knife, and the painting brought me back to the possibilities and hope for better things. Deciding a year later to give it another go in different colors was kind of scary. Why would I want to make another attempt at success with failure lurking right around the corner? Not sure, but revisiting the scene made for a content afternoon. What's more - I am delighted with this one too!
