A Lot Going On

 

"A Lot Going On"

36" x 36" Oil, oil bars and crayon on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Floral

One of my main objectives in this piece was to explore a border with the very bold floral.  I used several different tools, many brushes and Woody crayons and oil bars. It took a while, but I am at a point that I think it is finished, and it is drying in the studio.  It's a fun and whimsical painting.  Thanks for looking at my work....Kay

These Days

 

These Days

Contemporary Abstract

Oil, Charcoal and Oil Bars on Canvas

Approximately 50" x 50" on Unstretched Canvas

These days I am into abstracts, starting with what I call a roadmap.  I draw, paint and then scrape away the oils, and do all again.  I mixed my colors and mixed more colors, and my piles of oil overlapped...so that they are harmonious. I did not plan anything, it all happened and the prussian blue lines/vase was put in at the very end...so now I have an abstract floral.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking at my blog.  KMW

24" x 36" Oil and Charcoal on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Abstract

This abstract started out as a floral, and morphed into something else.  I had a very good time working on it, using lots of thick juicy oils.  At the end I wanted some calligraphy and some smaller strokes, so I used a willow charcoal stick and a small tool made for ceramics.  I like the movement and the color palette on this canvas...it's happy and fun!  Thanks for looking at my blog.  Contact Kay for more info on the art posted here.  Thanks, Kay

Untitled Floral

 

Contemporary Floral Still Life

Untitled

Limited Palette:  Cad Red Med., Cerulean, Cad Yellow Med., and Titanium

12" x 12" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel

This is the third painting that I have painted, in a very different color palette that I normally use.  It was interesting, and although I wanted to reach for some other colors, I found myself mixing and mixing interesting combinations.  The colors are harmonious and work well together.  Thanks for looking at my blog.  I hope to be in the studio today working on a large canvas.  Kay

Mixing It Up

Mixing It Up

12" x 12" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel

Contemporary Floral

One of my studio mates brought in photograph that we used as a starting point for a paint-along.  I put a self-imposed challenge on this painting, using only three colors and a tube of white.  Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson and Cad Yellow along with Titanium White were my colors of choice.  I mixed and mixed my colors...a good lesson on color theory, and mixed the bouquet up, adding my own petals, leaves and berries.  This painting is drying in the studio.  Contact Kay with any questions or comments on this fun floral.  Thanks for looking at my blog!  KMW

 

Borrowed Vases

Borrowed Vases

10" x 20" Oil on Canvas

Contemporary Still Life

I started this painting months ago, after one of my studio mates brought some fresh cut flowers and cute little vases in for me to painting.  I got bored, and I was getting ready to slash the canvas yesterday, when another studio mate told me to keep on painting.  So I did, and now this whimsical and abstract creation is drying in the studio.  I am glad that I pushed myself to work on it through the "ugly duckling" stage.  Thanks for looking at my blog.  Kay
