Almond Blossom work in progress oil painting by Marion Hedger

Almond Blossom Palette knife oil painting WIP
by Marion Hedger
24x30cm (approx 10x12inch)
Oil on Canvas Panel
Work in Progress

As you read this I shall be on my way to Japan. Hopefully the cherry blossom will be in bloom and I will come away with heaps of photos to work from when I get back. I may also do some sketching while I am there, although I am very hesitant about sketching/painting outside in full view.

To get me in the mood, I cut some of my almond blossom an placed it in this vase. The vase is from a set of three, all slightly different but all with odd angled sides. Talk about making things difficult to paint! This painting is not quite finished - I still have to work on the branch on the table and, now that I see the photo, alter the stem on the left.

Autumn Birches oil on canvas panel by Marion Hedger

Autumn Silver Birches
Oil on canvas MDF canvas panel
Palette knife painting
18x24 cm (approx 7"x10")
Available by auction (or buy it now) on DPW
I have slightly altered this autumn painting as the right hand tree was bothering me and never looked quite 'right'. I also added more oranges and reds to the central area and using heavy impasto with more colour on the silver birches to reflect those autumn colours.
Tip
For the bark, I used underpainting white for mixing the colours on the trees. This white is very thick and dries quickly and gives a lovely impasto effect.

Collage of some close-ups and previous painting
 Here is a collage showing some closeups of the knife work and the older painting for comparison.

Abstract in pinks and blue, oil painting by Marion Hedger

Abstract in pinks and blue
Original oil palette painting by Marion Hedger
30x30 cm (12"x12") oil on stretched canvas
FOR SALE in my ETSY SHOP 95€, shipped internationally





This is a bit of a departure for me. I don't normally paint abstracts but I have been thinking about abstracts a lot just lately. This one actually started out as a way of using left over paint - but then the painting took over, and needless to say, I had even more paint left over at the end. Painted with a palette knife and card used as a scraper.

I like the effect of these colours together and for me - especially with the square format - it works. Sometimes it reminds me of a cityscape, and at other times of a waterscape and reflections.

Can I join in? Still life painting by Marion Hedger

Can I join in? Pears and apple still life by Marion Hedger
Palette knife painting
18x24cm (approx 7"x10") oil on canvas panel

One of the pears from yesterday's still life was eaten for breakfast, so I made up the trio of fruits with an apple. It had similar colouring to the pears and was a good substitute. It can't understand why it is different though, and can't join in with the pears LOL.

Take a look at my 'Three of a Kind', pear still life painting
