PAINTINGS COMPLETED TO DATE: 40
I got to paint Original Acrylic Paintings today. This week has been soooo busy! For a guy that is unemployed, that is really saying something. I haven’t had a second to paint.I am starting to get worried about the 100 paintings in 100days. Smaller canvasses were a snap, now I am up to 20″ x 16″ and that takes more time and paint to do Original Acrylic Paintings.
Anyway, today I cleared more space out of the studio because my panels are getting bigger. I need space to store, gesso, paint and store again, so I moved some boxes out. They are in the middle of the landing now and have to go somewhere else, but I can do that later.
Abstract #13 (Ginger) - 20" x 16" - Acrylic and graphite on Masonite - $350
I am returning to some of the earlier paintings I did. I re-did a “Dwellings” piece today in a larger size. It went pretty well. Original Acrylic Paintings are easy to store. I don’t know what oil artists do. Doesn’t it take days for them to dry out?
I also did an abstract that my wife says is one of her absolute favorites. That is saying something because she is very supportive of everything I do. Thanks Babe!
How long the oil painting takes to dry depends on how thick the paint is applied and the temperature in the area. The one I did lately that is shown on my blog took a day each to dry. I’m letting it sit until I get more inspiration as to what to do with it next time. They mainly have to stay out overnight until they are dry before they can be touched or stored. They are not the type of paintings to hang in a bathroom that gets used every day because of the moisture. Love, Aunt Christy
