Wildflowers in spice jar



Back to alla prima, light-and-shadow style for this one. Trying to paint loose, hoping that some of Quang Ho's magic has rubbed off on me from watching his DVDs.



Soulful Jazzy.

Oh... now I've scrolled down and I see there's a second lovie... How wonderful... beautiful dogs, Jala!

I always enjoy your alla prima work... You are so versatile!!

So as you try different methods, do you find you have a preference or do you warehouse it in the brain and pull it out as you need it?

I'm asking as I just ordered Quangs' DVD also after reading about it here and in the spring 09 issue of Workshop Magazine.

I love how you handle the loose painterly brushwork.

Is Jazz giving the Blorpenmeister a day off from the camera and kleig lights of web fame?
