Workshop # 54 Potato Field

Before going to the painting I want to share a great site that my painter friend Meredith sent me... Savvypainter podcasts.... I am addicted.....very inspiring.... I even painted and listened at the same time. great to be exposed to so many painters and their thoughts and work process.

This another painting from WDE events last November hosted by Wendy aka Sundiver the Potato Field . Decided to post the stages of the painting.. so I can track the WIP.

Oils on 2 30 x 30 cm wrapped canvas using palette knife.... They can viewed as one piece or each as a separate piece.

Workshop #52 Yossi's Salon

Workshop #52  Yossi's Salon

Yossi is my hairdresser and his salon is quite unusual.  He loves art and has a very nice collection of art work on the walls and his furniture has "flea market" all over them.  Even the booths are old fashioned
Last visit while waiting I photographed the unusual sofa on the opposite wall.... there was a very good reflection of Yossi  which I tried to get but didn't succeed... so off it came.... may try with pencil or my wax crayons when its a bit dry...now of for baby-sitting duty!!!

30 x 30 cm Oils on wrapped canvas with palette knife.

Well I decided to put Yossi back in the mirror.
