Study

Being an artist is difficult. Especially when having a full time job and other little projects going on in your daily life... But there are only a handful of other things that give me as much joy as sitting in front of the easel and "playing" with color.
This time, inspired by Qiang Huang (one of the artists I follow) I wanted to create a composition with really bright colors and see if I could pull it off. I got to use many of the sennelier sticks that usually sit there waiting to shine when given an opportunity to be part of the light or highlight of a composition. I also tried painting eggs which by the way are HARD!!!! But I want to keep painting them!!!

P.S. The third muse is already underway...

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.
