Another VERY Bright painting

I just can't seem to stop painting bright colours.  This one was inspired by a piece I saw by Baptist, and I thought I would try it out.  I have painted yellow over rose madder, and the colours just shine through. It's a shame the photo doesn't show the pinks as well as I would like.

The inevitable nude

As all of my followers will know, I am a fan of ABC2's Forger's Masterclass.  And of course one of the most recent episodes was about nudes.  So I of course had to have a go.  I was a bit hesitant to put it up here, but my friend Carolyn was a bit persuasive, and so here it is.

Work for TAFE

I am finding that TAFE is definitely interfering with my output, and at the moment I am concentrating on a history essay - I thought I was past that!!!

Anyway, the requirement was to produce a painting in our favourite colour.  I couldn't make up my mind which was my favourite colour - yellow or purple, so did both!  NATURALLY!



Study in purple

 Anyway, here are my efforts.  The swans comes from a photo in The Age newspaper, and the cityscape is from my imagination, courtesy of Melbourne.  I am afraid that the purple in both photos has not come across as deep and intense as it is in the real.
