The Adventure up for Repairs

After my Daily Meditating session I took these Photos of the Adventure at the Marine Railways.

In a few weeks I’ll have to find a quiet spot, because this parking lot will be filled.

1st Sunday Morning Painting Class

Due to weather conditions the class was held in Deb Clarke’s House. There were three students;  Tom, Liz and myself.

Spot Color Painting was the assignment. Spot color painting is where you pick a color and relate that color to the rest of the painting. Debbie began by giving a spot color demonstration. Tom picked a scene outside one of Deb’s windows, Liz picked a hanging candle lamp and I picked a high shelf with three colored wine glasses and two silver pictures. Deb’s Knowledge of art, painting and color instincts are very inspiriring. The two hours flew by. I can’t wait for next week! Anyone whoever has thought about taking up painting should give it try. Twentyfive dollars is a great deal for the infomation you receive.

“Karen” by Deb Clarke

From:  Deb Clarke

“Karen”

This is Karen, the completed work documented in my earlier ‘wip’  in the series “Faces I Remember”.  It is finished.  During the process that brought the work to this point I was continually critiquing the work.  I kept trying to get the eyes above the one third, but my inclination was to keep cutting the ‘shape’ down.  This morning I finally decided to find the center of my canvas.  Wouldn’t you know it?  French painter Pierre Bonnard’s words critiqued the work, he said:  “There should be nothing in the center of a painting.”  Then portrait artist Helen Van Wyck words critiqued the work:  “In a portrait the eyes should be around the one third point.”  then I said:  The Hell you say!  I’m still in training!  This is Karen and this is the way I do it.  I broke the rules, yet it works.  why?  because it is didactic and self referential. so, there.

ps:  this is drawn from memory of a friend from Banana’s.

One Found, One to Go!

One of the Rocks I Sketched on and left on Pebble Beach was Found. Here is the Email I received;

“Cool, Found your Rock.. What a Great Idea! Love it! Keep it Up! Found on Sat. 3/27”

I was surprised with the nice  emails I received commenting about it. I thought it was a little Silly. But I guess you never know what will interest some people. Maybe because it’s FREE?

There is still one  left.  It was left on a Barrier Rock not far from the one that was found at Pepple Beach in Rockport.

It’s a little smaller than the one that was found. If anyone finds it and would like their photo on GMG just give me an email, It’s on the Rock. GOODLUCK?

Look for some more Art Rocks Strewn about Gloucester Soon.

I need a Name Like Sharon came up with for her game Where’s ZAT.  Hmmmm how about Find ZIT? Maybe Not.

message on a rock, I did'nt have any Bottles Handy.
Found
The Location where it was Found. The other one is a few rocks down from this one.

LET’S PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!

YEAH! LET’S PAINT!

You know you want to.

If you don’t think you have the time to take up Painting, Think Again.

My Painting Teacher has given me permission to share some of his secrets of being able to manage Everyday Tasks, Exercise and Paint at the same time.

SO NOW YOU HAVE NO EXCUSES NOT TO LEARN HOW TO PAINT!

Here’s a couple of videos to get you started.
