UP FOR AIR

24"x24" oil on panel
Well, this is off in another direction (again).  I can't help exploring. When you paint every day, you have to break up the routine and try things. Underwater light looked tempting. I changed the swimsuit several times (the color, that is) I tried white, pink, purple,and black before settling on this blue. My wife accused me of painting a nude at first. I explained it was a white swimsuit. She didn't seem completely convinced and wanted to know who the model was.....so I moved on to the other colors.

This one and the one below titled Summertime1 were inspired by a short film I ran across by Vrinda Webb. Vrinda is a photographer/filmmaker in the UK. Check it out

Unusual colors for me. And the 1st piece without figures in quite a while.

SUMMERTIME1

48"x72" oil on panel




Another really large one. I think the studio shot conveys the color more accurately. Inspired by a film by Vrinda Webb.
