Baby Its Cold Outside - Oil on Raymar Panel 6"x8"This is a little Oil Painting that I did and it was fun, to get the light in the tent effect. Reminds me of a Winter Camp out my brother and I went on back in the 80's. It was a gorgeous day, in the 20's we camped on a island at Lake Louise and it dropped to -40 degrees that night. It turned into a Survival Trip. Trying to stay warm was a struggle. It was to cold to cook anything, even the bottle of Black Velvet froze that night. What a learning experience that was.
I have started taking a Portrait Oil class at the Anchorage Museum from artist Linda Infante Lyons. I have not done portraits in a long, long time, and never in Oils. Have done them in Pastels, so this is a new learning experience. I a real excited about trying to expand my abilities. I believe Linda has a blogspot here on Blogger.com also.
I have a Art Show the first weekend in March in Homer Alaska at the Fireweed Gallery. So this weekend I will be working up paintings for the show.
