Sunset water reflecting oil painting by BECKY JOY

I finished this 18x24 oil today. I like the combination of colors that I have going here. There are a lot of grays in the scene and a variety of cool and warm grays in the bushes. All the grays make the pure colors in the sky and water seem even brighter. The bushes as a whole are cooler farther away from the light and the field is brighter and purer in color closer to the light. I have posted this painting on my website, www.beckyjoy.com

 I've been working on a few larger pieces. Now its time to start working on putting together a portfolio. I'm trying to get everything organized and have made up several pages of photos. I guess I'm using an antiquated program, Word Perfect. I went to get the files printed and they had trouble converting them. So now I need to convert them to Microsoft Word. I tried to print some on my printer, but the color is really not adequate. So tomorrow its off to the printer with my new files.

BECKY JOY sky #6 nocturne and sunset oil paintings

This is the 16x20 that I painted during my ustream broadcast. I told everyone that the rose madder could get away from you and color everything. I did over use it and had to tone down the bottom of the sky by graying it. A few other little tweaks and it was done.

Sky #6 6x6 oil $110. includes free shipping and a small 

black display easel. To purchase click here.

I'm now getting things ready for my demo tonight in Phoenix. If I get business done before I leave, maybe I'll start another painting today. The weather is starting to cool down here in Phoenix. I went for a bike ride and it didn't even get too hot before it was over. I'm usually hot and thirsty when I'm done. The great weather is just around the corner.

Well, I'll try to get ready for another painting. Talk to you all later.
