Oil on Hardboard
I decided to give the latest challenge at Daily Paintworks another shot. This time I tried to follow the directions more closely. I really tried to change colors with each stroke. And I think it did make a difference. I like the apple the best. It was challenging though to get the consistency of the paint just right so it covered the board but wasn't too runny.
Another thing I tried was standing while I painted. This required a whole series of rearrangements but I can see the merits to standing. I think it makes you a litlle less fussy. Maybe I will try my next portrait standing.

Do you stand or sit when you paint?
Being the lazy cow that I am, I tend to sit. Makes me feel more in control, I think. Anyway, love this composition and the strong brush strokes. Live the colors too. Well done, Karla!
ReplyDeleteI have always sat until I tried this one. I agree that I also feel more in control when I sit. Maybe that's one of my problems! LOL!
