Sunday Morning at the Park




8 x 8 Oil on Gessobord

This should be called "Fast and Furious Study."  Limited palette (except for the kite), and limited time.  I really like this one.  I think it has movement and atmosphere.  I could have gone a lot further and given it a "finished" look, but that wasn't my intention.  I was trying to zone in on the two figures and what they were doing.  These exercises are really helpful for me, and I'm enjoying the process.  It's a very free feeling to paint like this once in a while :-)

  1. Nice painting Shelley. We had the "Kite Fest" here in Greenhill Park today. You should have seen all the kites. I'll be painting some soon I hope.
