College Seminar, Oil on Panel, 12"x24"

The top left example does not quite illustrate the intensity of the blue ground. It was more cobalt than it appears. I felt this leaned toward an illustrative aspect and moved to a Payne's Gray.  I've also decided to put one more apple in behind the glass bowl.  Still wondering if the genders should be separated and symmetrical as they are.

College, 12"x24" Oil on Panel

In my mind the Cardinals will be in an interior setting.  Background to be determined.  But, I'm considering a midtown blue toward the indigo.  The Cardinal to the left of the bowl will sit on a sprig of winterberry.  

Copley Society of Art, Small Works: Symphony

 

Four times a year the Copley Society of Art, of which I'm a member, calls for small works from the members.  These works can be no larger than 200 square inches and framed.  My work above, Cardinal with Paintbrush #2, will be shown there along with the below.  I'm pleased to have Cardinal featured on the CoSo website.
