Butch’s Barn

Posted in daily painter, Dogs, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 5, 2011| Leave a Comment »

During the Farm Tour last May I took lots of photos of Barns and Farms for the upcoming show at the Blue Ridge Arts Council.  I have painted several including this one of a horse stall barn at Butch Eastham’s farm. 

There was several children there that day so excited about seeing the horses.  I decided it would be better painting with the little girl in it so I made a change.

 

That’s one thing about painting.  You can always change something if you decide you would like it better another way!

I call this Farm Tour at the Eastham Barn. It is an 8″x10″ acrylic on canvas.

Also, took this photo of Little Girl when I was at the Eastham Farm that day.  Couldn’t resist showing it…

Art Residency Project Progressing

Posted in daily painter, Small Town Life, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , on March 15, 2011| Leave a Comment »

The next step in the process for the Art Residency project was to start sketching out the different elements.  And then to paint. 

Here you can see the beginning of A. S. Rhodes Elementary school, the Gazebo, the entrance sign to Shenandoah National Park and a barn.  Look closely and you will see the Courthouse is sketched in as well.

And today I actually start the project with the kids at A.S. Rhodes Elementary and Hilda J. Barbour Elementary.  Can’t wait to meet the 16 kids at each school.  Hopefully they will be excited about painting and about the project.

Barn with Fence

Posted in Art Class, daily painter, tagged , , , , , , , , on March 5, 2010| Leave a Comment »

The Fenced in Barn is an oil on canvas panel.  This is a piece that we did in art class recently.  There are many lessons to be learned on a painting like this from color mixing,  shading, perspective, etc.  We try to choose ideas that allow the student to gain increased knowledge so that they may advance their painting skills.

If you’d like to join us and paint along, contact me at kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com .  We’d love to see you in class!
