Busy Busy by Kay Wyne

Busy Busy

40" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Abstract Painting

Layers of grey blues covered the canvas in the beginning, then I applied fresh color with the palette knife, scraping it back. After several sessions with this canvas I pulled out a wide brush and some oil sticks drawing in lines and shapes. That gave the painting movement on the canvas, adding interest and depth. I pushed and pulled the paint around, moving it until I was satisfied. Once I stood back from my easel I could see that the corals, pinks and oranges gave it energy. The blues, greens and turquoise are cooler and give the painting balance along with a variety of lines, brush strokes, palette knife. There are hints of yellow and creamy yellow in the painting....hidden under the layers. The sides of the canvas are painted in the grey-blue color, and framing is optional. Ready to have a new home, BUSY BUSY will be dry and varnished, ready for purchase soon. Contact Kay Wyne for more information. Thanks, KMW

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

#mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study. We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that. I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it. I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas. Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website

Central Fire Station Lake Charles, La Barbara Haviland

CENTRAL FIRE STATION LAKE CHARLES, LA #CentralFireStation,#HIstoric,#Building,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com Central Fire Station no longer exists in Lake Charles, La. I had some old photos that I used to paint this painting. 24"x40" and it is signed and framed, but you must come pick it up. I was told that the station burned down and they built another.

I haven’t posted here in a long time, partly because my artistic endeavors have taken a turn toward quilting instead of painting. But this quilt started as a painting which I had printed on fabric and then turned it into a quilt. So maybe I can slip it into the blog! If you are interested in seeing more, let me know!
