Art can be very affordable.  I recently painted about 20 miniatures – small acrylic paintings on canvas paper that measure about 3″x4″ and they are matted in 8″x10 mats ready to frame.  They are available by contacting me directly or you can see them all at Delilah’s at 105 E. Main Street in Front Royal.  They are only $20 each and would make excellent gifts for anyone who loves art.

Here are several examples of the miniature paintings.  The photos show only  part of the matting.  You really should see them as they turned out really great!

Lemon underpaintingLast Wednesday night at Art Class we worked on an acrylic underpainting of a lemon.  Instead of oil paint we used acrylic paint and only using black and white we painted the shading that we saw of the lemon.

 

 

 

 

Lemon glazed painting

Last night at Art Class, with the underpainting of dry from last week, we glazed over the acrylic paint with an oil paint and a blending medium to add color to our lemon.  This is a technique that many painters use to get shading into their works.  It sometimes makes it easier for students to see the subtle differences in shades and tones.

The Lemon measures 5″x7″ on canvas panel and is available for $45 by contacting me at kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com .

 

KellyWalker SmallThe final 3rd Thursday Art Walk of the season is tonight from 5 – 8 p.m. in downtown Front Royal.  Be sure to come out and enjoy some refreshments and see the artist demonstrating.  Delilah’s will have a tent sale as well as demonstrations.  And I believe there will be pumpkin carving demonstrations at the Blue Ridge Arts Council.  Just in time for the season!  Come join us.  We’ll look forward to seeing you.

(That’s me painting during a 3rd Thursday Art Walk.  I was working on an abstract and I think I may have been channeling Jackson Pollack at the time!  🙂  )
