Welcome to What's On Your Easel......July 2018

[Keith Russell]

In progress, "A Lone, Arterial Tree", 12 x 16, oils on GessoBord.

Yeah, it's sideways. I've tried turning it every which way on my PC, and it still loads to the WC database like this.

Oh, well, I think you can get the idea...

That tree has to be very high up, Keith. Looking good so far, looking forward to seeing more.

Struggling with the detail a bit on this one as it's considerably smaller than I usually paint, but it's coming along:



Got it a bit further on than this this afternoon, hoping to get the car finished this week.

It is coming along nicely Anth!

Thanks Delo! Had a really good day on it today and make substantial progress:

This is called Debbie's porch and I've done it in a 10 hour session. Very unusual for me as I almost always paint in layers.
It is almost drying out now and I am wondering: should I leave it as is or should I work on it a little more?
Also - this would be the first painting I'd put my signature on: should I wait for the paint to fully dry before I paint my signature? Should I use simply darker/lighter colour for the signature or go for black?
Very interested in any feedback, thank you!
J.
