"Eve,Selecting Apples in Heaven"
Finally,I'm posting something after a few not so good months of inactivity.
I received my "Wooden hand" that I ordered at my local Art store.
I wanted it because had so many "Ideas" for different projects.
this is the first one and have to say that was really into it at the beginning,but then,I got a little bit bored...
I think that I'm going to use "my" hand again...(LOL)
but just have to wait a little to see what kind of wacky-ideas come to my mind.
I tried to add a little bit of "Humor" to the tittle and as for an "Experiment",I think it is ok.
This is a 14x20 watercolor painted on Arches (Hot pressed)
and was painted on Sept. '14
"Chaos"
Chaos was born from a pencil sketch,it came to mi mind on a time when there was not much inspiration.
But when I drew the pencil sketch I thought that it was interesting.
Since there was nothing else for me to do I decided to give it a try.
Not exactly what I was expecting but at least I got to paint something.
the title came to me when I looked at it and and couldn't find anything else,Chaos is what I saw...LOL
It was hard to do the Red and there are 2,maybe 3 different Reds and an under-wash of Yellow.
it is a 12x16 watercolor on Arches Cold pressed and it was painted on Sept. '14

This is another Acrylic that I painted not long ago.
Again,a simple design but I really liked it.
It was one of my many crazy periods...LOL
but I really wasn't in the mood for watercolors.
so I decided to do this and since those wild ideas had been on my mind for a while...
Decided to put them on canvas,well wood panel...LOL
This measures 24x18 and was painted on May the 27th '14
is good to finally post something after all these months!
hi again!
I didn't paint watercolors for a month or so,but i was working on a few pieces on Acrilycs.
Simple designs that started as sketches and really wanted to use some neon-like colors...
the colors are a little bit too bright,but i really like them!!!
this is a 20x20 Acrylic in wood panel.
I'd used Acrylics before but not much and what I did this time is completely different.
I was also curious about the wood panels,I saw them at the Arts store and bought me a bunch...LOL
Anyway,it was an exciting process and even though it isn't anything really outstanding...
I really enjoyed it.
Might try a few more.
This was painted on June...just not sure about the day...
2014...LOL

"Trash Day"
Well,I finished this painting last week.
I thought was a good composition,loved the colors...
The rusty looking can in the top of the card board box...
full of discarded things,ready to be recycled.
It took me a while to get the initial sketch right and still has a few little things I'm not so happy with.
This is probably one of the pieces that will be displayed in the Santa Cruz watercolor society upcoming show.
This is the most recent and decent looking work I've done for a while...LOL
it is a Watercolor and it measures 22" x 30".
painted in Arches (300 lb) cold press.
and it was finished on Feb. the 6th '14

"Untitled"
Ok,one more not so convincing painting...
I took a photo a while ago and I was really attracted to the rust and texture of this electric post,pipe and switch...
I'm not really sure what is it called and what that is for...
I just liked it.
I liked the composition and colors but I have to say that there were a few times that I almost quit and discard this piece,for some reason I wasn't happy with it.
somehow I lost interest on it and didn't want to finish it.
I could have added a few more things to the shape on the left but decided to leave it like that.
The colors are nice and still like the composition,I'd like to think that this is not bad at all...
it is a Watercolor and it measures 14"x20" painted in Arches Hot pressed and was finished on Feb. the 10th '14

"Lorrie's tool box"
This is a painting I really enjoyed working on.
Lorrie is a good friend of mine and work for her occasionally.
One day was looking for something in the tool shed when I noticed the high contrast created by light and shadows.
I've been there so many times and have seen those things before but this time was different.
I ran for my camera and took several photos.
most of them were good but not so different from one to another.
when I decided to paint it wasn't too difficult to start,since I really liked the composition.
what was more complicated was deciding and planning what I was going to do.
at the end,it was a nice experience and really liked the way it turned out.
9"x12" Watercolor on Arches (cold Pressed)
and it was finished on Jan. the 30th '14
