"Quiet" Oil on 8x10 inch canvas panel






 My interest in drawing has been pretty strong lately.  During my visit to the Art Store, I bought myself some conte pencils, and a set of conte pastel pencils.  Plus, some toned papers to draw on.  I set up this little still life to draw from, and I after I drew it, I thought it might make a nice painting.  I had recieved quite a few 8x10 canvases and canvas panels for Christmas, so I used one for this painting.  It's nice for a change to paint on a larger surface.   I named it "Quiet" because every time I look at it, that's what it makes me think of.. a quiet and peaceful moment.

  3. Hey, Debbie - it's cool to see a drawing. I have been avoiding drawing - even sketchbooks because of limited studio time for the past few years, but this post really shows the important link between the two- drawing and painting. ANyway, happy new year - looking forward to seeing all your new work in 2012! - Sarah
