Toy Puppy

My model for today's painting was my daughter's favorite toy doggy that she brought with her all the way from Russia to the US. These toys are such good models - they sit very still and never complain of being tired of sitting :)

Milk in Silver

This is a 6"x6" gessobord painting. I made a goal to paint the creamer quickly and accurately, rendering the material (silver) in a limited number of energetic and free brushstrokes.

Pansy in a Cup


SOLD

Yesterday I received a package of gessoboards. I've never painted on them before, so it was unusual for me to work on such a smooth surface. It's different, and I need time to get used to it. I always gesso my canvases before I paint, but these gessoboards are unexpectedly smooth for me. I liked the feeling of discovering something new. It's refreshing. Thank you all for the comments!
