January 25, 2012 My newest painting is Monday Morning Breakfast Group. The title came first (my husband has breakfast with a bunch of guys every monday, and they call themselves that.) But the idea was right there with the name. You will see in the New and Available works that I first did a study, a smaller piece of the larger painting, to determine colors, positioning etc. Normally my works are much more spontaneous. This one required lots of planning. The loose, watery background looks like it was the easy part, but no, it took 3 tries to get it right. The details are oddly not as difficult. If I can figure out how to post photos in my blog, I will share the finished piece and the anatomy of the painting. (Click on the thumbnail to see the full painting.)
