Some More Everglades Painting July 12, 2012

These are some new smaller paintings (6x4) in the Everglades series. Three of these four are NOT kickstarter rewards. I like all of them actually, especially the one that I am showing twice!. I made up names for them all but my names are boring. I need to come up with better titles!

Later I will post four other larger paintings (7 x 10 1/4) that are pretty close to completion or done. I cannot decide if they are ALL done yet. At least three of them are.

These are great! I love the coloring and the use of spotting in the trees and fields.

I liked all these. It is funny how I now like the smaller ones better than the larger. ones...I will post larger ones soon so people can judge!

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.
