Monaco - Color - Building

Monaco - Color - Building
12 x 16   Oils on canvas panel

I saw the photo on Jilly's blog Monaco Daily Photo and it seemed to be an abstract painting - so I made one! I couldn't help myself and put some texturing in the orange side of the building. Most of the colors are straight out of a tube with just a tiny bit of mixing.  I try to make paintings with many colors from the tube(s). Although I usually seem to mix some colors. Dang!

The reference photo for this painting came from Jilly's blog Monte Carlo Daily Photo. The young lady looks more than a little miffed because she has some business to take care of. And the wedding is taking LIKE F - O - R - E - V - E - R - R - R.

This is from a post by Jilly in her blog Menton Daily Photo.


I have problems making clear, crisp photos of my paintings. My automatic camera is being surly again and won't focus on the painting, or when it does focus properly show every bit of the tiniest glare! :-)

Flamenco Dancer In Green  14 x 18  oils on panel

This was inspired by Jilly Bennet's blog Menton Daily Photo.

Jilly has been so kind to me to allow me to use her photos as material for my paintings.

I have forgotten this dancer's name and can not find my references for the painting. Getting sloppy and trying to do too much?  :-)  I think that I recall that this lady was leading a class of persons interested in learning how to dance Flamenco.
