go to your room

The need and desire; perhaps one in the same, to go to the studio, aka 'room',

is ever present and looming.

 I have 12 art works to be completed in 12 days.

yikes. 

Go to your room.

(I have work to do!)

unusual suspects

studio works; what was one painting turned into 4.

sumi, akua ink, gesso and charcoal.

veiling, obliterating, adding and more mark-making.

common themes in the views, now onto color.

home-grown, plein air.

Home-grown retail offers views on top of Queen Anne ideal for learning perspective concepts for drawing practice.

A one-point perspective study; I realized how important it is to place down the basic structure first and these add more of the form-giving elements, then more structure and form = detail.

I am not relying solely on perspective elements as vanishing points, horizon line and center of vision; though those are critical. I am utilizing shape and value and the big winner: figure/ground.

Finding one's position in space is all about perspective study; a true renaissance ideal.

expressive landscape

opportunity in expressive landscapes; evocative

bridge.

painting, mostly.
