Day 32, Project 125 Colorful Sky painting, Playing with Color | BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy     Day 32, Colorful Sky     oil   6 inches x 6 inches     $125.

I worked in the studio on a larger painting most of the day. This was another color study for a large painting. I first painted the large dark shape of the tree, then the mountains. Next, was the lower sky color with the red. Everything was keyed off those colors being subordinate to that. I really wasn't sure what I was going to paint other that a large tree. The larger painting has some distant farm buildings and a field in the middle ground, but the colors are very much like this.

The Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg has been doing very well for me and it's time to send some new work to them. They need more. That's a good thing to hear nowdays.

In Fredericksburg, TX I will be teaching a workshop  Oct 24 - 26. The Texas Hill Country is a beautiful area to paint.

I just got more information on my Tuscany, Italy workshop June 7-17, 2014. If you book the workshop before Sept 1, 2013, you will get the lowest price with 2013 prices instead of the 2014 price. Let me know if you are interested and I will get more information for you. beckyjoy@beckyjoy.com

Day 29 & 30 Sunset oil paintings. Project 125 BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy    Day 29, End of the Day     oil on panel   6 inches x 6 inches  $125.

© 2013 Becky Joy    Day 30 Sunset Stroll    oil    6 inches x 6 inches    $125.

Hi everyone, 

I told you that I had another painting done that I hadn't photographed. I pulled it out this afternoon. Day 29, End of the Day was actually painted in Shanna Kunz' studio in Utah before I came home. Today I painted #30, Sunset Stroll. Both are 6"x6" and $125. each. They are both paintings that I was playing with color. I like to put together some combinations of paint that artists don't readily combine, dioxazene purple and bright green, d, purple and lemon yellow, d. purple and cad orange and of course, scooping up all the paint for grays. Experiment, try new combinations.

I'll be painting more studio paintings in the next couple of weeks until I take off for Colorado or maybe a day here and there where I might brave the AZ heat. Or, maybe not. Meantime, back in the studio for some studio work and to supply the galleries. Today's finished painting is below, 16"x20"
