"An Admiral's Lunch", Oil on canvas, 16"x16"
My first oil painting. I have been wanting to pursue learning oil painting and dabbled in it now and then, but kept going back to the pastels. However, last spring I bit the bullet and got my Genesis oil paints out of my archive supplies. "They" always say it helps the creative process to learn a new medium. Wow!!! What a difference between oils and pastels. So far it has taught me patience(drying time). Genesis oils have a different drying technique--but that will have to be another blog. Anyhow, below is some w.i.p. pics. Right now I am planning on doing a series of my butterflies on the 16"x16" wrap-around canvas, so check back once in awhile.
Enjoy, and thank you for reading this.
