Walking on Air

This week's Karin Jurick challenge was to paint upside down, using the reference photo in the upside down position. This was to make you paint using shapes rather than the actual images. I must admit it actually made me a little dizzy. The brain kept wanting to turn the image right side up. Well, since the lady was suspended I figured she must have been walking on air, and gravity would be having its way with her. That made me think of the most famous uplifted skirt. This 11" x 10" watercolor on 300# Arches is available for $275 on my website http://www.dianemorganpaints.com/

Frozen in Time

Not only are these people cold, their future seems uncertain. I love doing these Karin Jurick weekly challenges. They are just plain fun. Not that I don't love what I do everyday, but these are kinda like recess. This ready-to-be-framed 9" x 7"watercolor on Arches cold press paper with a simple white mat (outside measurement 12" h x 10") is available for $225 on my website http://www.dianemorganpaints.com/

Where's Stella?

A friend commissioned this 8" x 10"oil of her granddaughter at ballet class. She's giving the painting to her daughter for Mother's Day. Guess which one is Stella!
