Lemon Glazing

This is an underpainting of acrylic in black and white where we allowed the underpainting to dry totally and then put glazes of oil paint on top. This technique is a great way for students to learn to see light and shadow. We will be painting this lemon soon in our Thursday evening adult class. Lemon, oil on canvas, 5″x7″, available for $75.

Abstract Landscape

Posted in Abstract, Art Class, daily painter, tagged Abstract, abstract art, acrylic, Art Class, art lessons, daily painter, impressionism, Landscape, Shenandoah Valley, Virginia Artist on February 23, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Representational Abstract is a form of painting that combines the loose ease of abstract with art we recognize. Even though we see the bright colors and long brush strokes in this work we can still see that it looks like a landscape scene.

This is some of the things we will explore on Saturday at the Art Workshop in Strasburg. Join us for three hours of fun and learning. Contact kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com .

Posted in Art Class, daily painter, Dogs, tagged acrylic, art lessons, daily painter, Dogs, German Shorthair Pointer, GSP, impressionism, pet portrait, Rescue dogs, Virginia Artist on January 17, 2012| 4 Comments »

Meet Fancy. She’s a German Shorthair Pointer pup that belongs to some friends. I met her yesterday and you talk about cute!!!! She oozes cute.

Now meet Jade. Fancy is a member of her family and she wanted to paint a picture of her for her mom. We met yesterday for a lesson and she came up with this terrific painting! Great job!

And while Jade is only 7 years old, she is such a sweet and mannerly girl that she brought me a wonderful thank you note before we even started our painting. Adorable!
