Some Darker Skies

The small 5x4 painting to the left is one of my favorites. It is sort of exactly what the sky looks like some days in Chicago!...

The two paintings below are larger 7 x 10 1/4 offerings the one on the right I used only white, black and a tiny bit of blue with some silver watercolor medium in it. I think there are some unforgivable flaws in the painting though but I am going to dry to duplicate it.

The larger one on the right is actually fainter than it seems. It is sort of pretty. But not sure it is "all there" either. But I think all of these can be copied and fixed...excluding the top one that I may try to do a larger version of....

    For many years I painted. Then I stopped. These paintings started out a sort of experiment. Even when I did paint I never did watercolor. I spent a lot of time trying to be Van Gogh painting oil. Most of the paintings were unfinished. I decided to start using watercolor based only on the recollections of what my father had tried to teach me years ago. The newer paintings are the more recent. If you go back to the beginning you can see the early stumbling ones.

    I didn't start by drawing, I didn't practice. I just painted. I haven't included ALL the paintings and at some point I will post the first ones I did. But most of the paintings--for good or ill are here. Some are oil and also gouache.
