Another 6x6, This time Alizeran crimson, Cad lemon yellow and Ultramarine blue

Another small oil painting, 6x6. Using a limited palette on Alizeran Crimson, Cad red, Cad yellow, Ultramarine blue.

I am back in my studio, plugging away with the oil paints. This took too long, my goal is 4 hours from start to finish. I definitely need to practice brushstrokes and flowers need a light touch, but I am happy with the vase.

I am painting with my daughter, Claire. So we are working in acrylic paint. This medium is not familiar to me and I struggled with the texture of the paint and the fast drying times. You can see this in my strokes. I did like the brightness and clarity of the color!

I am planning on working small, 6x6, on simple objects to improve my color mixing and brushwork. These are both painted with a limited palette oh Alizarin Crimson, Cobalt blue and Cad yellow lemon or Cad yellow light.

I am currently exercising brushwork and color mixing with still life.

I am using floral subjects to push my color and technique in watercolor.

The Kiosk Cafe is a favorite destination for us here in Budapest. This painting captures a lazy Sunday morning. The cafe is housed in a beautiful period building behind the Parish Church next to the Erszebet Hid.
