Poppies in Progress

As usual, I’m not effectively asserting control over my life and did not get to the studio this weekend, but I got an electrician in for badly needed fixes! This has happened in the past month. Work In Progress.

A gouache afternoon, covid continues

A quiet Saturday afternoon with my gouache and a handful of carnations. Nice to paint after all the ink drawings that I’ve been doing. In other living room/studio work, I’m taking tentative attempts with silver point and gessoing panels for using with my new acrylics that arrived this week.
