Old Shed/Barn? daily oil painting by BECKY JOY

OK, I'm continuing with the buildings. This 5x7 is an old barn?/shed that I saw in the Four Corners area. I have this listed on Zatista for $100. I had fun painting the metal roof, the paint was just gliding on with the palette knife. It was unclear what was in the back part of the shed, but some light was coming into it and there was a lot of interesting shapes and colors to paint.

I got a call today from John at Windrush Gallery in Sedona. I'm delivering a couple new paintings to him on Friday. He really likes some of the new work that I am doing, including the houses. I'm floating two of the 5x7's in 6x8 frames. When I get them done tomorrow, I will take a photo to show you how they look by floating the paintings in the frame. I'm having a good time painting these little structures and the response has been good so I think I will paint a few more. I always have liked old sheds, barns and funky houses, not to live in, mind you, but they are interesting to look at.

Trees and Field oil daily painting by BECKY JOY

To purchase this painting go to my blog. http://beckyjoyartist.blogspot.com/
This 5x7 painting is for sale for $100 which includes shipping. I wanted the dark trees to be against a light background and foreground. As in any grouping the objects (the trees) should all vary in size. I also put some dead branches to give a little color and variety. I like depth in my paintings which the cool colors to the orange in the foreground gives, but also the texture in the foreground helps to bring that forward. I have the hints of a fence in the field.

I got quite a bit of painting done today. I finished the foreground of a 12x16 and started another the same size. I took some photos of that one from the beginning. I hope to post the progression of the painting start to finish. I should have it up on the blog by Wed.

Remember, if you sign up for my newsletter, you will be in my drawing for a FREE painting this month. If you are already on my email list, have a friend sign up and I will put both of you in the drawing.



I'll be posting another one tomorrow.
