THE ART SPIRIT

I WILL  show three paintings I did this week.While I like the methods used in them, they are not the same .
What method I use depends on the subject. I could use the same through out but I seem to resort to
past workshops from the different teachers I have experienced.

The following are acrylic on mat board. I love to work on toned backgrounds. Especially dark warm colors.  A CONTRADICTION I ADMIT TO EVEN WHEN I JUST START A PAINTING.
This will be the painting I teach in NOV. AT THE MASTER THE POSSIBILITY CLASS.

my long time art friend
Theresa Trahan sent this set up FOR A STILL LIFE  to me . I missed
on my drawing of a darling white and blue pitcher.
BELOW  IS A PAINTING  I did studying Dreamer Toll Perry 's painting.

THE painting below was done by JUDY Rudolph . I t si a watercolor she did in my watercolor class a few months ago.

more of my schedule will be on my web site.
 
MORE ROBERT HENRI
In the drawing of a tree there is a dominant line of growth throughout.
Some times your treemust be so specialized that an expert on trees would be  fully satisfied.
Other  times it does not matter if it is even a tree.
