Daily Painting Seascape in Oil, 4x12" "Tropical Waters" SOLD
I love to do seascapes, especially with a palette knife, as it allows me to use plenty of texture. I like working with the ocean, it seems like a different place minute by minute.
How cool to have all this texture and all these shades of blue, aqua and green.
Being an artist is a good thing....I am very grateful.
Have a wonderful day!

Daily Painting | Abstract Painting | Small Oil Painting | Wishful Thinking by Carol Schiff | 14x11" SOLD
Well, it has happened again.........I had the urge to try my hand at abstract again.
I was determined to do a mixed media abstract, get out my many Golden mediums, and just have a fun day playing. Kind of like kindergarten. Why did I think that?
Don't I know that mixed media abstract is one of the most stressful things I can try? Why don't I remember that my mind goes blank, that I'm not one of those people that can stand in front of a blank canvas and pick up a brush without a plan?
Why do I always think, this time it will be different?
Well it wasn't. I worked at least 4, maybe 5 hours with my Golden mediums, getting the texture just right, carefully choosing the acrylic colors, blah, blah, blah. It was a mess.
The next day, I sanded down as much as I could, turned to my beloved oils, and ended up with this result. Something I can live with. Something that might give me a tad more confidence the next time I decide to do an abstract. Something that I really kind of ........ like. NEVER GIVE UP!!
