Pale Autumn (171)

Pumpkins
I have been trying to paint pumpkins for a few weeks now, on and off. Unfortunately, I have a lot of unfinished ones lying around. Lighting has also been an issue in new studio. Despite all the lights in here, with November being so grey and dark, the lights are always on and bouncing around creating too many light sources. Pale Autumn is a darker study (unintended irony, I apologize). There were so many off-whites and creams that it was unavoidable but to include the November light (or lack of it) in it (a more yellow tone). I think it gives off a nice atmosphere. I hope you think so too.

Audiobooks and Art

I know many artists like to listen to music while they paint but I like to listen to audiobooks. I borrow from the library and its usually great but today I was three quarters through when it expired on me (my fault). When I went back in to borrow it, I had to place a hold. So I'll have to wait a week to find out what happened.  Blue Hydrangea 096 oil on canvas board 8" by 8" Click to Buy   Whenever I look at a painting I can always remember what book I was listening to. In some ways I self title them that way. This one will always be split into two but I got it finished anyway.  Not to advertise but I realize if I don't say it's a cliff hanger -  Sara Gruen - At the Water's Edge (interrupted- don't tell me how it ends) Sara Gruen - Water For Elephants
