new paintings
These 12" square paintings (as yet untitled) are ones that I did as demos during my workshop at Rochester Art Supply two weekends ago. I didn't really expect to finish any of my own work, but everyone painted so intently that I actually did complete these two during those sessions, and two more are close to done.
All four demo paintings went through many changes over the two days, since my purpose was not actually to make any finished work, but to show as many ways of applying and removing paint as I could come up with. It was a good refresher exercise for me. It was also a challenge to paint in front of people, but I certainly had an appreciative audience.
For more pics and commentary on the workshop, please visit Barb Chappelle's blog--she was one of those intent and appreciative people.
(My apologies for the slightly blurry photos--they were taken under less than optimal conditions, and I had to leave the paintings themselves behind to dry.)

Hi Rebecca. I'm really enjoying your blog and site. Such depth and richness! Makes me want to experiment more with transparent paints. If you ever teach a workshop on the west coast, I'm totally there. :)
Hi Rebecca, just went to Barb Chapelle's blog and got a wonderful treasure trove of tips from your workshop! Thanks for including that link! For instance, never thought of applying oil stick to a brayer - what a great idea!!!
