Something happens when I look at the painting I’m working on through the review of the digital photo. It gets distilled somehow. And what’s not right jumps RIGHT out. Had to soften the dark above his eyes.

In May 2010 my leadership group had a reunion in Minnesota. I spent some time working on the painting of BJ on the screen porch of the B&B where we stayed. The water was challenging – all those distinct shapes and colors and detail, it was hard not to have it be to littoral.

Macarons – I painted this one systematically, the small amount of background, then the plate, then the tan colored cookies. After this I painted the chocolate ones, then the colors, ending with the pink – of course!

Just need to finish their faces. I paint the eyes last and it’s quite remarkable how once they are in, the spirit of the dog shows up.
