What goes through a cat's mind, anyway?

Friend or foe?

This approach was inspired by a cat painting by Jamie Wyeth. Mr. Wyeth's painting is probably quite large, and features lots of green apples. Mine is 11 x 14"

Mother and Child - Mary Cassatt

2008-01-20T13:06:00.000-08:00

January 19, the Ohio Plein Air Society invited artists to paint at the Cincinnati Art Museum. I brought an 11 x 14" panel to copy one of my favorites. Next time, I'll try Elizabeth Nourse.
I'm preparing to conduct a workshop at the Cincinnati Art Club March 1 & 2. The subject will be 'painting from photos.' Students will bring their own photos, and we'll work on composition, color, mood and creating distance. It should be a blast.
For workshop information, contact Joyce Friedeman 859-781-4881

The goldfish have plenty of hiding places this summer.
You won't see a lot of postings this summer, as I get ready for several shows that are coming up this fall. 8 x 10" panels have become my favorite painting surface for outdoor excursions. This excursion just took me to the front yard...Stay tuned!

Uncommon Ground

2007-06-11T08:13:00.000-07:00

8 x 10" oil on panel.
This little house outside Loveland, Ohio, is part of a retreat center. The undeveloped valley vista beyond the house is becoming a rare scene in Southeast Ohio. It seems that everything is for sale in 'God's Country.'
We had a great day on Main Street yesterday. Second Sundays on Main in downtown Cincinnati has really become a big event. We had a grilled mett from the street vendor, an iced coffee from Kaldi's and sold 4 paintings. I even got a good start on a new painting.

Here Today

This scene really may be gone tomorrow. The barn and surrounding buildings are due for demolition this month.
Thanks for viewing my blog. In future postings it may look more like "Daily Progress" than "Daily Paintings." I have a heavy show schedule ahead, so I'll be working on mostly big paintings. Stay tuned!

8 x 10" oil on panel.

Saturday was a "painting perfect" day at a local garden shop. The Cincinnati Art Club arranged the opportunity for this first excursion of the season. The old straw hat is showing a little wear, and my half/box easel needs some loosening up, but it was a great day.Click Here to bid

Phoenix Foundry

2007-03-21T05:31:00.001-07:00

The BIG PROJECT is finally complete, so I thought you might like to see the results. These two paintings have been a lesson in gathering and piecing together reference, then trying to resolve issues like scale and lighting.

Work and More Work

2007-03-05T08:11:00.000-08:00

I now have two paintings in progress. They are 36 x 24"
oils on canvas, commissioned by the John P. Parker Museum in Ripley,
Ohio.

I am especially excited about the exposure this work will
receive when it travels with an exhibit in Cincinnati's Freedom Center,
and later at Music Hall for the opening of an opera.

Honestly,
I do miss the daily painting routine. There is a rewarding sense of
accomplishment in FINISHING so many paintings. I have 80 paintings in
my inventory list of work that was completed and posted on this blog
(andEbay ) since September 2, when I began this journey.

Coming
this summer and fall are FOUR BIG SHOWS in the Cincinnati area. I'm
sure the shows will include some works as small as 8 x 10" but most
will be bigger. It is my goal to have at least one large feature
painting for each show. Considering how long it is taking to do the two
paintings I posted today, I'm going to need a lot of painting time.
Stay tuned!

I met a busy family having lunch at the famous Beehive in Augusta, Kentucky. It was a blustery day, but not everyone seemed to notice.

Sorry! I'm having trouble getting Blogger to upload my picture! If you ever get to see it, it's an up-close and personal study in light and texture. I think the link will work with Ebay.

Lily

2007-02-13T10:44:00.000-08:00

8 x 10" oil on panel.

Lily is one of three commissions I completed recently. One of the keys to a successful painting is good subject matter. The photos I was sent made great paintings.

I guess I'm on a seafood kick...What seems really appealing right now is a warm breeze. We finally got a little snow in Cincinnati, and I'm already pining for a trip South!

I painted this scene because watching a skilled fish cleaner always reminds me of Grandpa.

This is being posted a bit late. Blogspot's server was having problems the other day. Anyway, this painting is a copy of Philip Leslie Hale's "Agnes". I joined a group of plein air painters at the Cincinnati Art Museum Saturday, and painted this cropped and reduced copy of the painting he did in 1915.

I don't often do commissions, but I'm glad I took this one. It was a good reminder of why children are always painted from photographs.

5 x 7" oil on panel

Every Monday should start with a beach. Especially a day like today, when the morning fog is rolling across Cincinnati.
This beauty caught my eye when I was painting on Hilton Head Island.

Today's painting was inspired on the sands of Hilton Head. Wonder what's in that bucket...

Hyde Park Runner

I caught this runner taking a break on Hyde Park Square. Tuesday morning was a great day for a run - a little chilly for painting.

The Fisher at Eden Park

2006-09-20T06:00:00.000-07:00

9 x 12" oil on panel

Anyone in Cincinnati will recognize the bridge in the background. Every artist I know has painted the bridge over Twin Lakes in Eden Park. To avoid painting a scene that has been painted so many times, I walked around to the side where I could see the bronze fisher statue. This poor goose has caught a fish, but can't swallow. His neck has been cinched by the fisher, who retrieves the catch of the day.

The Guardian

He's all business. The guard at the Guggenheim doesn't mess around. This could also be titled, "Hey, Lady! What are you doin' with that camera?"

This is the Friday edition of my daily paintings. It's another oil painting on a 5x7" panel. Working with a palette knife can be tedious at this size, but it keeps me from getting too "tight" with my work.
