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.

Just Us Chickens

I mentioned a few weeks ago here that I painted some chickens for a poster for the upcoming Retreat hosted by Suzanne McMinn of Chickens in the Road fame. That art is featured on her website now. Take a look at it here. I am looking forward to being a part of the Retreat as I will be teaching several painting workshops. And the good news is there is only a few spaces left. It fills up fast!

This is Cochise. He is a beautiful Rottweiler that I got to meet recently. I had actually met him and his sister, Cheyenne, as pups. But now that he is grown and well over 100 pounds he’s a lot of dog when he jumps up to hug you!

These beautiful babies belong to Betty and Steve who commissioned their paintings. You can see Cheyenne here.

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 .

They wanted a front and back version of their home in one piece so these are acrylic on watercolor paper and they are framed together.

“Chickens in the Road”

Posted in daily painter, Farm Animals, tagged daily painter, daily painting, farm animals, impressionism, Landscape, oil painting, Virginia Artist on February 18, 2012| 4 Comments »

A few days ago I told you about my friend Suzanne McMinn with a blog called Chickens in the Road. I am painting this in order to make a poster for her upcoming Retreat.

I took a few photos of he painting along the way so that I could show you the progress.

And this is how it turned out. “Chickens in the Road” is an oil painting on canvas measuring 16″x20″. I think it will work well for a poster for the upcoming retreat. All of the attendees will receive one as a memento of the weekend. I’m looking forward to it as I will be teaching some painting sessions. You can see more about them on the workshop tab above or here.
