My thinking was based on the fact that "most" people who buy art are thinking about where they will put it in their home or office. Wall color, size, lighting, location, they all come to mind for the art admirer. In fact, I was recently at an art festival in Tampa and overheard a potential customer telling the artist they had just finished remodeling their home and the painting they liked matched the interior design and colors. </div><div><br /></div><div>So off to Lowe's I went and snatched up about 50 little paint chips and combo booklets.

I've completed four paintings in two months. That's pretty good for me, as I usually only end up with about six to ten every year. I just lack daily motivation. But my brain has provided a couple of ideas lately so I opened up some acrylics and here are the results.</p><p>Most are available to watch the creative process on my YouTube channel @Paintings by Pintar</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgsVNtSQGHw0-khkOvlhmsFQDiqgvHORcLd6artOOCa-4WPTedL4mIoSMX2boN9N2VHn8TnzscnEP338Vxwkw0rkYZOCXs79AFzhXd6vBQ3jF4U4kGHs-KyEn0bRXVs9fhWMLL_lfPzD5jXR8n2kB5BySDmQWS-iEEpPe-Sjw4q7zhV0-WHksG8DcMbiw=s3264" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="2448" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgsVNtSQGHw0-khkOvlhmsFQDiqgvHORcLd6artOOCa-4WPTedL4mIoSMX2boN9N2VHn8TnzscnEP338Vxwkw0rkYZOCXs79AFzhXd6vBQ3jF4U4kGHs-KyEn0bRXVs9fhWMLL_lfPzD5jXR8n2kB5BySDmQWS-iEEpPe-Sjw4q7zhV0-WHksG8DcMbiw=s320" width="240" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">March Madness 24 x 48"</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjx0HXVn379lGEOnLMzVnZcIFGNyV1GWLrou-N_nL1psfVvL5dcQgT3WGuz-nv6vlUuAba5RsgumwKa7oTpBjkD0olohiFQ89MwQnpqwqTF2F7-Ziizn4DMrK1tEQk6-rxnQLax06lBHeU1DQ1ukGPopay5c9b3de9nr7tU0GgGk9rVVcV3Q63p0N4dnA=s3264" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2448" data-original-width="3264" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjx0HXVn379lGEOnLMzVnZcIFGNyV1GWLrou-N_nL1psfVvL5dcQgT3WGuz-nv6vlUuAba5RsgumwKa7oTpBjkD0olohiFQ89MwQnpqwqTF2F7-Ziizn4DMrK1tEQk6-rxnQLax06lBHeU1DQ1ukGPopay5c9b3de9nr7tU0GgGk9rVVcV3Q63p0N4dnA=s320" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Black Scissors 9 x 12"</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiCw4ILWgINfnc34sQqSenuEOJ9P6FvQAkhZspxgFY2Kg60c-0YiKkshs2Xjcr9CJ9bqFRaZh-UUuaTMuQP7ScWyoB--CJyQbcb0pLLM_WRog-ItRK3pxKb0SAe-vE1SCZF0kutsPjMDYFkV3ue4NNtqXRKtJOt_bnN6Bq_vuoxcVMls3XAGSznF-e_Xw=s3264" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2448" data-original-width="3264" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiCw4ILWgINfnc34sQqSenuEOJ9P6FvQAkhZspxgFY2Kg60c-0YiKkshs2Xjcr9CJ9bqFRaZh-UUuaTMuQP7ScWyoB--CJyQbcb0pLLM_WRog-ItRK3pxKb0SAe-vE1SCZF0kutsPjMDYFkV3ue4NNtqXRKtJOt_bnN6Bq_vuoxcVMls3XAGSznF-e_Xw=s320" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Parrots on Black 24 x 36"</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh9UuJo66M1ygnZHxQMb4lYpCmPdsjED6R289mz5TXK6c-zKy0UrsVAN2y0cjDyIfIkMi04SMIa1bP5c9U7iu0jsHBFfZhKtj9y_DnXpLKxESdwOH3c-B5fUuKljImb7IH2hpIyXQd2CQV3NQ6WyLA8PunGCKy9Vtaif_HVvcnjhq6VFZPzSonpzA2q3g=s3264" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="2448" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh9UuJo66M1ygnZHxQMb4lYpCmPdsjED6R289mz5TXK6c-zKy0UrsVAN2y0cjDyIfIkMi04SMIa1bP5c9U7iu0jsHBFfZhKtj9y_DnXpLKxESdwOH3c-B5fUuKljImb7IH2hpIyXQd2CQV3NQ6WyLA8PunGCKy9Vtaif_HVvcnjhq6VFZPzSonpzA2q3g=s320" width="240" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Flamingo Flight 24 x 36"</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885832602858381243.post-54952722424071703292022-01-07T08:05:00.000-06:002022-01-07T16:31:32.915-06:00Easy Palm Tree Painting / Acrylic or Oil / Impressionist Painting Demo<iframe width="480" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/XMg3KA5NCSY" frameborder="0"></iframe>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885832602858381243.post-52817201727854480762021-12-04T07:41:00.000-06:002022-01-07T08:06:49.729-06:00Easy Abstract Painting.

As you've seen I don't regularly post because....I don't have a good reason why not. I just don't. BUT, here is a link to YT videos that I did and discusses the concept of color and value. There are two parts. If you punish yourself and make it through part 1, please grab another cup of your favorite beverage and watch part 2.<br />

I took reference photos from a vacation to Barbados and used one of them for this work. The challenge was to get realistic looking foam getting sucked back from the shoreline to this incoming breaker. Take a look at this video for start to finish how it was created.<br />

My plan was to just do the quick paint. Maybe next year I can investigate getting juried in. The quick paint is part of the last day of events during this paint out, capping the night with the "gala"; music, art and sales opportunities.<br />
<br />
Wekiva Island is just outside the state park. I had never been there and it turned out to be one hopping party place. Lots of people much younger than me, families, dogs, and just a fun atmosphere. Oh yeah, there was a lot of art on exhibit and what turned out to be a dozen quick paint artists. While I was fairly happy with my piece (more than two weeks ago at Lighthouse), it didn't grab one of the top three awards. Here are a couple photos I took during the progress.<br />

This 2 hour window of "spontaneous artistic combustion" kicks off their week-long plein air festival. About 40 artists, including me, participated in the downtown Stuart, FL area for the quick paint. It was a bit cool by SE Florida standards and by the noon judging of entries the winds were howling about 20-30 mph. You had to make sure your display easel was weighted or turned just right to avoid having wet paintings from being blown over.<br />
<br />
I haven't been painting outside much this year and struggled with moving shadows and a busy street corner where I set up. In the end I was not thrilled with the results but had a good time "practicing" and being out there amongst other artists. Here's a quick set of sequence photos;<br />

Here's another piece I did last week plein air while in the Village of Fenney, central Florida. I was facing the sun so some of the photos are a bit washed. But the sequence is shown below. Painting cypress trees with Spanish Moss is fun. And the bugs were non-existent as was the heat.<br />

So much has happened since my last post it seems pointless to recap it all. But I can put up something, anything, with respect to slinging paint!<br />
<br />
Here, this is a pastel I did at a demo for Leesburg Art League a week ago.<br />

Kind of heading down the impressionist path with this one. It's the first pastel I've completed in at least a year. It was fun...and fast. Which is what I like about pastel.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885832602858381243.post-46853929407610730112016-11-05T19:30:00.000-05:002016-11-05T19:32:08.389-05:002nd Place AwardMy relocation to The Villages in Florida offers a variety of new art adventures. The Villages is home to what looks like several 100 artists from painters to sculptures, wood makers, fiber and many other media. It's really unbelieveable!<br />
<br />
The artist group Villages Art League recently sponsored an exhibition "Inspired by the Masters". As the name indicates, artists research historical paintings created by any of the great master painters of the past and then use one as an inspiration to create their own.<br />
<br />
I selected <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Henry_Potthast" target="_blank">Edward Henry Potthast</a>, an American Impressionist who was known for his beach scenes featuring people at leisure. Several weeks ago my wife and I had visited Daytona Beach and I snapped several photos of people walking the beach and kids playing in the sand. This is the reference photo I used for my inspiration.<br />

One minute I'm living and working away in Milwaukee, the next I'm announcing my retirement and moving to Florida. I'm free now to create. Free from day to day toiling in the office. Weeks have gone by as my wife and I have had to get "set up" in our new house in The Villages. Yeah. 55+ planned community in central Florida. So much to do and it's all fun!<br />
<br />
I set up my studio in a 3rd bedroom. I found my easel and Easy L box and off I went to paint. First stop was so close to my house; a county park called Lake Okahumpa, Today was a typical blazing hot June day. Morning 9-11am was the time slot for this painting.<br />

This fall I was driving around aimlessly looking for somewhere to paint. If I spent as much time painting plein air as I did looking for that so-called perfect spot, I'd be a much better artist! By chance, as I blasted down a highway at 60mph I glanced to the right to look up a weedy road. STOP...pull over and back up. Nothing posted as private so I drive in about 40 yards and here is this awesome abandoned bard/shed. The painting had to be looking inside the building with all the broken wood slats and light streaming through the roof. </div>

I didn't get a close up of the 8x10 oil painting, but it was fun to try and get those grays correct. I kept the palette to just a couple colors and tried to work fast. So after driving for an hour, I painted for an hour. The sun was going down and it was time to,,,drive another hour back home. Such is the life of this plein air artist.</div>
