Weekly Art Chat W/C 12th May

Morning all. I really love the backgrounds you do Max.

Thank you so much for all your advice on commissions - lots of things there I hadn’t thought of. Useful stuff.

A little more work completed on the Land Rover. I love doing them but they do take ages.

Beautiful flowers Max.

The land rover is coming along really well Gaynor.

Fab landscape Brenda.

Morning!

Really gorgeous landscape Brenda, peach is one of my favourite colours.

Has anyone tried the SAA’s new opaque white watercolour? I’m wondering if it’s just gouache labelled as watercolour to satisfy the semi-purist market?

I’m working on a few panoramic beaches this morning. I love painting them and have been asked for a larger version of one of my dolls house ones, so I thought I’d do a few while I’m about it. Much better than looking at the rain lol.

This is a good article on the differences between gouache and watercolour http://rosalocke.hubpages.com/hub/Watercolor-vs-Gouache

That looks interesting Stephie, I’ll have a look tonight.

I’m still in birthday mode today!lol Thanks Max for the lovely card and the very pretty ACEO, looks so cute in the little frame :smile:

The colours on that kingfisher are gorgeous Hazel!

Hello everyone again! I have not been around for ages and have just 4 paintings that I listed yesterday. Problem is they are not showing in search results for encaustic art. Can anyone tell me why?

Hi! Your encaustic paintings are on page 5 of Paintings. You probably listed them as others were listing quite a few items, too! The pale wax on a dark background looks really effective!

Thank you Margaret :slight_smile:
Waving River and Pam …

Morning all. Such a pretty effect on the butterfly Brenda.

It’s beautiful weather today so I thought I’d give this one an outing:

Enjoy the walk Stephie, it’s glorious sunshine here though a little nippy.

Lovely glittery butterfly Brenda, I don’t see any purple in it though which is unusual for you? :wink:

Beautiful boat Gaynor, such a lovely scene which makes me think of holidays :smile:

Have a great day everyone, will try to pop in later.
