painting: titmouse
I bought a handful of new strata to work on–cradled hardboard. This is a birch board 1/8″ thick resting on top of a wood frame, so the entire depth is 3/4″. The surface is very smooth, and requires priming so the paints don’t sink right into the wood. If you are a people-portrait painter, IContinue reading “painting: titmouse”
painting: redwing blackbird

I have another one on hand, and intendContinue reading “painting: redwing blackbird”

We have gray squirrels roaming our yard, but this one was from a photo shared on a Facebook artist group. IfContinue reading “painting: gray squirrel”
painting: red squirrel
Are you being hit by this absurd weather? We sure are. I hope you and your family are safe, and have the necessities you need.
