It was that bit of porch in the warm morning sunlight that first attracted me to paint this,along with those cool blue and purple shadows.We see this view from our apartment,and at certain times of the day,the light hits just right.
5" x 7" acrylic on canvas panel. I started out with 2 bottles of nail polish for a still life. They were fun colors,a bright pink and yellow,but the shapes were boring,just square.After painting them,they just didn't seem to have enough pizazz,so I found this other bottle with a curvy shape and a beautiful bright red ,put it in front of some other objects like an old clock and a Moet champagne box we had on our table that someone gave us last Christmas and I wanted to suggest a story,maybe a night out on the town ,or getting ready for a date....
9" x 12" watercolor on Saunders Waterford 300lb rough watercolor paper.A friend of my boyfriend goes back to Saskatchewan every so often to visit his mom and friends,and he took a few photos this time.I asked if I could use them for reference,and he agreed. I loved the one I did this painting of because I was looking to capture the simplicity of the scene-a few lone barns and the nearest neighbor is probably a mile away.
