New video: "painting from a photo demo"

 

I did another zoom demo on Monday (Dec 14). This demo was organized by the Working Artists Forum in Easton MD. Since this demo was for a specific group, I did not announce it. However, you can watch the complete demo on YouTube now. The link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQupKbChHVc&t=173s. Please enjoy it.

"The Red Door" --- Sold

 

I have been slowing down and not posting paintings actively. Even the posted painting today was done about a month ago. The reason is simple: I have not painted for a while. The world is in chaos. I am having a hard time to concentrate myself to art. I try my best to calm my mind. I spend more time at my off the grid haven. There is no wifi and I force myself away from Youtube and other so called "information resources". If I don't know, I assume the world is still in peace. I know it is not true. I wish all the best to all of you. Please protect yourselves. It is cold there, we will hibernate and wait for the spring to come.

"Mission Espada" --- Sold

 This is a small painting I did in November. Although it is small, I have spent quite a few days to finish it. I have found recently that my painting process has been prolonged significantly. I have been thinking and seeing more, and found more stuff I don't know. I have spent long time figuring out the color I should use for the wall of  the Mission Espada. We all rely on our intuition to paint. However, if you start to see the intuition gradually turn into a rational process, we start to understand. If your intuition is still a merciful phenomenon, it means you have not understood.
