August Paintings

I'm finally getting around to posting art I created in August and late July. It was a busy month- perhaps not so much as far as art creation goes- but in other aspects of my life. I started a new position at LE Smith working in the marketing dept., and I taught for two weeks at Lakeside, Ohio.

Here are some photos from the two weeks I spent teaching art at Lakeside, Ohio, Marblehead.

This painting is the second one I did in Marc's workshop and I am a lot happier with it after working on it some more when I got home. Marc suggested that I open the path to the patio. I had a small opening to begin with ut lager one did open up the composition. Then I added a lot more color to the flowers etc. This is another gray day painting and I really like to add bright spots of color into the piece when I paint these. I am just not into a 'moody' gray style of painting. The color is what attracts me.
