"Winding Road" - SOLD


5x4" oil on masonite

Yet another submission to this week's DPW Challenge. I had some left over masonite so I made some 4x5 inch panels. I don't think I'll go any smaller than this, but you never know. I may be inspired to do a 1x1 inch, three brush strokes and then call it a day! The biggest problem with the small panels is attaching them to my easel.

    I like this,very direct. Read about a class exercise at MassArt of a 40 stroke painting. That would really challenge me. Found a good blog called The Powers of Observation put out by Catherine Kehoe. Check it out.Lots of good info.

    I like the colors you've used and great brush work.
    I want to learn to keep it simple like this! Very nice!

    Have you tried strong two-sided tape to attach small boards to your easel? Perhaps that would work.
