the game...


the game....







Recently I commented on a fellow watercolorist's painting...about how I loved the way he treated light and shadows...

he replied, "I am absolutely captivated by the game of light and shadow everywhere I go..."

Amazing....it's amazing that he said that....it really stuck with me. I feel the same way...something I will expand on in a future post.

His name is Beni Gassenbauer....and here is his site. Check out his work.


Today....a game of light and shadow... first the sketch....as always...the sketch.... with my yellow...and pink today.




work....the studio today...inside...wherever there is natural light...that's where I set up...

a different view....





and that was today's painting...on a cold and rainy day....celebrating the game of light and shadows....








Peace.....love  <3 and lovely light....and doing something daring.  


it makes me absolutely blissful when I paint something...that I love.

  1. Fantastic painting! I've never been big on nude and anatomical studies, but since I started to see yours over the last month, I've really changed my mind. I'll qualify that: it's your studies in particular that I like -- the way you do the watercolor, that is, the technique -- the color and shading -- is outstanding. Keep it up.
