I've recently uploaded some new work, or to be more accurate, work that I have "refreshed", to my website. I'm new to Daily Paint Works and have started uploading images of paintings to the daily forum of work that appears on my screen every morning. It's very inspiring and I have learned a lot from what the other participating artists are doing regarding the promotion and sale of their work. It's really a very focused and serious enterprise, selling one's paintings, and the benefits of learning from many other pairs of eyes is invaluable.
Here's what I got today...
This went up this morning.
Greenwich Village scene
oil on paper
5" x 7"
This is a little scene that I painted from my hand-held pochade box that artist and friend Bill Darling made for me.Little flower shop off of Christopher Street on a sunny day in May.
I'm on a cityscape kick lately so here's another one. This is the Jefferson Market library in Greenwich village at night. I love the Manhattan night-time painting experience; the lights and reflections do things to the colors that are surprising. They also tend to be moodier than daylight paintings. Cityscape and especially nightime scenes have a contemporary feeling - a bit less derivative and "scenic" than pastoral scenes.
