Oh my gosh I hope her mascara doesn’t run! This is so good in so many ways! You are putting those acrylics to very good use, Bongo!

I’m so happy it all worked out and that you had a good time, Bart! The piece on your easel is a beauty and that was a gorgeous painting location. Looks like perfect weather. At least the wind didn’t take your painting!

Thanks for such positive words, Wayne. My hand is slowly coming back after surgery. I wish I had remembered your “mother color” lesson while I was struggling to merge the different colored tissue papers into a cohesive background. It only dawned on me afterwards that those colors needed a...

A while back I posted an experiment I did with my leftover tissue papers from pressing weeds and wildflowers for printmaking. I started another one at the time and only recently was able to finish it. I finished them by painting black gesso on their sides and that dressed them up a bit. They...

Those colors and shapes are beautiful together! Wow! I’m glad it’s fairly big so it will really make an impact on a wall. It sounds like it might already have found a home. I hope the sale goes through!

What a gorgeous painting! I like how you leave a little of the underpainting/canvas to show through in your skies - they feel light and airy! Best of luck with your upcoming exhibition!

Wow! All of this in 3 hours? That's amazing - and your work is beautiful. You really had to zoom in to do the white church and not be distracted by everything else. It's nice that you can hang out with the sketching group.

Very interesting. I see an above ground/below ground image and there's lots of room for my imagination to go wandering.

You described those delicate, crinkled petals perfectly. Gorgeous!

These are both so fresh and full of natural light! I like the pink along the horizon in the first one and the dappled sunlight and shade in the second. Very nice work and you’re lucky to have such a cute assistant!

It's great that you were able to figure out the direction you want to take with your art! If narrative is important to you then I think illustration is a great fit; you'll have free reign on what thoughts and feelings are expressed. I like this landscape very much! It feels real and yet it is...

Pastel plein air Next is another plein air

Are these the Sultans of Swing? They look impressive and your work on the background really features them so well, Bongo.

The green stem is as beautiful as the red pepper! You did such nice work on the seeds and shadow too.

Sorry about the negative feedback. It’s hard to take when you feel that you put a lot of yourself into a work. I’m glad you’re back at it! I like this one, especially the white fluffy shapes that made me think immediately of clouds.

This might be my favorite so far, Terri! The foil does such mysterious things behind the image plus the wrinkles look amazingly like branches or even roots!

They could be real movie posters! They are bold and eye- catching.

I’m glad you explained that. I’m so out of it with movies that I missed the connection to the scary stuff.

I really like how you feature people in your work. They are very interesting design elements and you know how and where to place them. This is so good! Superman has never looked so patient.
