Number Three in the series gave me a little more of a challenge in getting the light right: for a couple of days it was starting to look like an old sci-fi pulp paperback cover illustration! Fortunately that was resolvable.
Number Four is on the easel, taped in preparation for underpainting, but on hold while a major household organization centered around the sewing studio is underway. My workspace per se likely won't change, but there will be improved storage of art supplies and eventually a more comfortable seating area from which to view my work in progress.
May 2018: Velocity Lakeville Highway N Nov 17 2014 #2
Seeing the greater level of detail and the range of tonalities achievable in scaling up from 8" x 10" to 24" x 30" astounds me each time I see one on the wall. Numbers 1 and 2 are hanging in the dining room, # 3 is on the easel, and I'm beginning to think about where to try to get them exhibited later this year.
April 2018: Large Velocity PROJECT StartS
Having started small with the original Velocity series (8" x 10" each) and then gained confidence with the first couple of Velocity 101 N series, I started this month working on larger (24" x 30") versions of the original series. As I write, the first is done and #2 is in process on the easel.
Following the nomenclature used on the Velocity 101 N series, this is Velocity Lakeville Highway N Nov 17 2014 #1.
If you are in Ukiah area on Saturday, May 19, stop by the Plaza and say hello; I will be taking part in the Pastels in the Plaza event.
