Green Apple Party

Today is the fourth day of my daily painting experiment and I am very glad of the product... The oils felt creamy and I love the loseness of the brushstrokes.

I have to confess that sometimes I tell myself I cannot paint. This usually occurs when I come up with something crappy even if I have tried really hard. But it is days like these in which I feel I need to continue painting!!! It is funny how your outcome fluctuates according your mood, inspiration level, and other circumstances in your life...

I can go to sleep peacefully. I feel like I have accomplished something today.

Key Chain Piggy

Today I did not have much time to paint, but I decided to depict an ordinary object which after careful observation became an interesting subject...

From Sarasota...

I took the reference picture for this painting at the Ringling Mansion inside the Ringling Museum in Sarasota, FL. I recommend you all visit this wonderful place, most people do not realize it is there. I took a field trip with my mom over there for the Tata Gala last year and we ended up visiting by luck. I am sooo glad I did!!!!

Japanese Tulips

I am back to my normal work schedule. I begin classes again in May, when I will start the last stage of my graduate degree: thesis.
Before I start hyperventilating from imagining all the work I will have to be doing, I can tell you that today's post comes to you all the way from Japan. My sister finally realized her dream of traveling there (Good for you Viviana!!!! I'm proud!!!). She will be staying there for 20 days and so I commended her with the mission of taking lots of pictures for me to paint. Here is the first one!
