Features





"Features"
24" x 36"
Oil on Canvas
Amber L Bailey
$500.00

This piece took on a mind of its own. It's far from the original idea I had but I like it. A friend called it "a more abstract version of what I love to do." She's right. I love to paint faces and features...and I wanted to try a "zoomed in" collection of faces in one painting. There ya have it. I'm still considering a few more finishing touches, in lies the danger. lol.

I'll be showing this at TSI Show and Tell for the October 5th Art Walk here in Jax.

Here are more pics:

I couldn't resist that name, I realize I could have just named this painting "red plums" or something equally uninspiring. ha.





"Opposites Attract"

Opposites attract - you know, red and green? Hey, it was a fun name to me.




"Sideways Squash"

These are a couple of studies from the workshop with Carol Marine.

These are a series of small studies from the workshop. These were great exercises and turned out to be a fun little piece. The objective in this study was to make every brush stroke count - to be "deliberate" in each stroke. We had 5 minutes for each little painting, then it was on to the next timed study.

I have more to post soon!
