Everyday People- Sly and The Family Stone

Everyday People- Sly and The Family Stone. 6x6 Gessobord. I have had to take my pics with my iPad as we have been on the road for three weeks, so not as good as usual. The challenge this week on daily paintworks is the crowd challenge. Ugh. This was very difficult. I worked the faces to death. My people skills( haha) are a bit to be desired. I finally arrived at something that I thought I could live with. I love the lady in the front...the lavender bag and the orange shoes! What! Here is the music.

Hate To Say I Told You So- The Hives

Hate To Say I Told You So- The Hives.. 6x6 oil on Gessobord. This weeks challenge is a cows! I have been wanting to paint them for awhile! For this one I covered my board with a burnt sienna wash, drew on my cows and then wiped out the white areas. Then I let it dry overnight. The next day I mixed my shadow colors and tried not to muddy up the colors putting them on. I am really happy with the way it turned out! Here is the music...which is a really good song!

Wildflower- JaneDear Girls

Wildflower- JaneDear Girls 6x6 Oil on Gessobord. The challenge this week is wildflowers. I could use the photo provided or use one of my own. I liked the purple so decided to use this one. We moved this week and it was a challenge getting my studio...uh..extra bedroom ready to go again, but finally am ready to go. Tried to do this fast and loose!
