Oil Practice

Ola everybody, hi mom,

This week's oil practice turns out a bit blocky for some reason. I think I'm bit bored of greenery now, might try something not green next time.

Birds study

Last weekend my blog friend Wren and I painted together for the first time at Lake Merritt in Oakland. It was a very nice day and there were tons lof birds of all kinds all around us. I picked up some tips and tricks of using watercolor from him and it was very useful, and generally just be in the same zone of another great artist really makes painting outdoors a very enjoyable experience. It also helps that neither of us seems like serial killers so we might very well get together again some time. :-)

Oil Practice

More oil practice, still getting used to the idea that painting is wet all the time.
