Painting-A-Day: December 3, 2013

Acrylic on Archival Gessobord with 3/4" Birch Sides, 12x12", Ready to hang!

I am finding winter landscapes to be fascinating. They tend to be minimalist, which poses a different kind of challenge. Because I am a former watercolorist, using opaque paint is a new world for me. I love the creaminess of the paint, the way it blends together in often unpredictable ways. As my husband will attest, I am persnickety. I prefer to call myself a "detailist". (I just made that up.) While assisting him in hanging Christmas lights along the eaves at the front of our house, and by that I mean pointing and commenting, it really bothered me that some of it was bunched up in one area. He said, be careful on the ladder when you take care of that later. I had to laugh. So true! I had to fix it. I told him that is the same trait that keeps me at a painting when something doesn't look right or feel right, as in...that is how I am made, buster! So if you removed each layer of the sky, you would find many layers. The sky changed many times today. I wanted to emphasize the heaviness of winter skies. I am happy with the result. No need for a ladder.
