Painting Of A Gazebo, An Example From An Art Lesson.

Here is a painting I did that was inspired by an art lesson I was giving. I was so pleased with the lesson and the material that came out of it I decided to do it for my own pleasure.

This is a fantasy composition where I used several photographs and composed the picture.

I did several sketches first and then painted it starting with the background. I used a wet into wet for the sky and background.  I normally do several layers of wet into wet technique to get it to the intensity of color that I wanted but instead, I  worked with more intense colors in the primary stage to keep the background undeveloped.

Garden Gazebo Watercolor
Parts of the painting was done like drawing by using the tip of the small brush. I did a lot of areas in layers like the flagstones, the grass, bushes and trees. I am happy with the gazebo itself being white. I kind of wished teh sky was a little darker behind it that would have brought it out more.

I still might touch it up a little before I put it in a frame. I expect to sell it for $150.00.

Painting of San Leandro Church Oil on Canvas for sale by Artist

This is an oil painting on 16x24 canvas. I painted it some time ago. It is one of my favorites. It is of an old church building in San Leandro where I used to live. It had huge trees with these fat tree trunks that must have been over a hundred years old. I always loved looking at it when ever I went past. I painted it in a stylized impressionist approach. I layered complementary dashes of paint over an under-painting.It is a brilliant picture.






San Leandro Church. Price $450.00. Contact me through the comments feature to arrange an appointment to see this at my basement studio, or for a quote on shipping.
