STILL LIFE

At our most recent paint gathering...
we decided to do some still life painting...or not...

since we visited more than painted....(well, some of us, that is)
I have attached some inspirational arrangements for you to tackle during the holidays!

Palette Knife Painting with Melanie Morris

This week we got together at my house to watch our leader lead us in
PAINTING WITH A PALETTE KNIFE.

She turned me on to this one year ago and I have never looked back!
I LOVE the palette knife. As a fast painter...and one with little patience
for oil, it has given me the freedom to layer and layer in fast strokes...
throwing control to the breeze...

It is the "happy accidents" that propel the work to something deeper than
what we were intending...

take a look at some of these from the class!
The notes will follow in another blog...
A picture says a thousand words....
