Oil painting of Anna

From a self portrait taken by Anna Kunst, a small oil painting finished today .

Eva Grimaldi and a painting

Strange coincidence this morning. On Yahoo home page there was a picture and article of this beautiful actress, Eva Grimaldi. Just last night I did this little panting of this unknown fantasy lady. I find there is a bit of a resemblance. 

La Sua Maestà La Rosa - Villa Fidelia

Saturday June 8 and Sunday June 9, 2013 at Villa Fidelia, Spello, my photographs in a collective show at the lovely Limonaia. Here, a detail of a photograph.

A tiny little pencil drawing: Mila Meter

Just had a few inches of paper in front of me, and out came this tiny little pencil drawing: Mila Meter.
Fun to sit and draw, without knowing what will come up.

Scratchboard

A technique I enjoyed as a student in highschool, still a very interesting technique.
A special board covered with ink and then scratched into, achieving fine lines that define the image.
Here, after many years, three tiny drawings.

Little watercolours

Fun to do quick "sketches", color upon color, bright lively little ladies like these I did today with a good set of block watercolors on a small pad of paper.

Paintings, photography

Sometimes a painting inspires one to take photographs, and sometimes a photograph may serve as inspiration for a painting.
Here, a photograph of my dear friend, that I developed in black and white, served to then create my own color scheme in an acrylic painting on canvas paper. "Claudia", 16"x20", acrylic on paper.
