Elaine O. loves autumn, too, but she's looking back to summer and capturing the light as it plays on these three game players. In case you wondered, she's still loving her new school supplies.
Ken's been working away on his new series Not That Damn Cat Again! (sorry, we got the name wrong last week!). We love the waves and stripes of the fur and are waiting to see how it links up with the fur under the eye.
Steve's also loving his new school supplies. He's researching and choosing a new palette. Part of the fun is this page of color mixing swatches. He's using warm and cool versions of the the primary colors and mixing secondaries from each combination. Here are the yellow and blue swatches and the resulting greens. Watch for even more fun when he adds the reds!
Gaby is working on the "grand" color wheel. These color swatching and mixing exercises are intricate and involved, but oh-so-valuable! We see the hues and tints of Gaby's colors. Come back next week to see shades and tones.
We always marvel at how every one of us does the same beginning exercises and yet, they all look completely different. Case in point: Kevin's beginning plaid. Admittedly, he's testing more than the standard few colors, but isn't this cool? We love the vibrancy and the drybrush—and we're glad he labelled everything so carefully. He'll want to refer back to this.
And if it's fall, the art exhibition season is upon us! Ken's opening reception may be over, but there's still time to see his paintings at the Ten Cat. You can just stroll by and see them in the windows—or you can go inside for beer and pool in a wonderful environment.
