I am trying to do a quickie journal spread (15 minutes or less) everyday. Actually I think it probably takes longer sometimes but I don't watch the clock... so who knows--it could be an hour. But it is fun. And below is my latest oil pear. This is a 5 x 7 but my goal is--GO BIG! Yikes!!!
This painting is inspired from a reference image from an artist named Toni Grote. Her style is not as chunky but still wonderful. I like to put my spin on these paintings by using some punchanella which works just find with the oils. As you know I love pears!!!
gorgeous pear, Martha....love the colorful journal page....again, your work is very inspiring..
ReplyDeleteWow Martha, that pear is wonderful! I like this style a lot and the oils in this method look a lot like acrylic. This work is awesome!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout and great pear. I wonder if I could adapt a daily 15 minute art session into quilted art. HMMM.
ReplyDeleteYour pear is gorgeous,love the colors in the background of it and also love your journal spread. Glad you're having fun with your journal.
