Open Acrylics

As you can see it has been awhile since I have posted. Well, I have been busy with a new medium called Golden Open Acrylics. I am particularly enjoying them for plein air painting. They dry slower that traditional acrylics. More like oil paints with easier clean-up, just water. I will have some new images for you to see soon. So keep posted:-;

Check out Mandy Marksteiner's blog. She is doing interviews of local artists.

The Red Barn

While I am posting this it is 90 degrees outside. So little wonder that I enjoyed painting this.

Canyon Face oil 12"x36" Gallery wrapped canvas

This painting is a more abstracted approach to the landscape. The location was in Bandelier National Monument.

Pajarito Snow pastel 10"x12"

Cantaloupe Cat oil on canvas 7"x5"

Oro Alamo

I enjoy experimenting. Adding metal leaf to this pastel painting turns into several paintings in one depending on the changing light or position of the viewer.
