COPPER PLATED PEARS

I'm in the process of starting to prepare for my summer painting classes at Art-A-Fair in Laguna Beach.  I primarily teach palette knife work with an underpainting done with brushes and this is done to establish your value pattern (pattern of lights and darks).  Palette knife is such fun because the color stays so clean and it can almost be sculpted when you have enough paint on the canvas.  I'll be teaching on Tuesdays.  The first class will be July 1st.  For information, call 714-271-1135 or to make a reservation, call 949-494-4514.

SATSUMA AND COPPER-SOLD

Another painting of my little copper fondue pot.  Painting copper is really fun and I'm hooked on it for the time being.  Also the little Satsuma tangerine was a lot of fun.  I just went back to the market and bought a few more.  I'll try to paint them before the leaves totally wither up and die.

COPPER POT-SOLD

This is a little copper pot that I brought back from France many long years ago.  It is actually a fondue pot, but hasn't been used for that in quite a while.  I hadn't realized how challenging painting the handle of the pot would be.  (It is still a little off.) But, I loved the shadow it cast on the background.  That became the focal point.  The figs are from one of my fig trees.  I liked the combination thinking of possibly making fig jam.  Oh well, it was just a thought...
