Creating a Painting by Debra Graleski, Stage 2, Background
2008-09-04 16:29:00 Stage 2, background/sky. As you can see the sky is now in the paintings. I usually do more then 1 painting at a time, so I don't waste my expensive oil paints. This was made this easier with this 2 in 1 painting. You may think the sky is only blue and white but if you look closer you can see yellows, reds, purples and more. The remainder of my paint was used to do the water in the bottom painting. Remember the lines I painted in Stage 1, look close, you can still see them.View all my Scenic PaintingsClick to View or buyAfter visiting Charleston, South Carolina, I became fascinated with the Cooper River Bridge. The cables are amazing, they remind me of string art. This painting is 2 paintings in 1. The unusual view at the top is looking up at the bridge while driving over it and the normal view at the bottom is looking directly at the bridge from the retired Aircraft Carrier, USS Yorktown.Original, Modern, Fine Art By Contemporary Artist, Pamela Miller.

Creating a Painting by Debra M Graleski, Stage 1
2008-09-03 18:25:00 I thought it would be fun to show you the stages of creating a painting, my way. Stage 1 is drawing and placement. I went over my lines with burnt sienna, so I can see the lines after I do the sky. If you look closely you can see where I made a mistake in the drawing and had to erase it and start over.View all my Scenic PaintingsClick to View or buyAfter visiting Charleston, South Carolina, I became fascinated with the Cooper River Bridge.

Enzie Shamiri and World Market Portraits
2008-08-15 10:00:00 It's finished! It's finished! Lillian's portrait is done--and you can probably tell that I'm jumping up and down.Back in May I wrote about Enzie Shamiri at World Market Portraits, the artist who was painting Lillian's oil portrait and every couple of days I've gone to check her blog to see what progress has been made.Well it's done! Enzie's posted pictures for each step along the way and it's been so fun to see the way things have developed and now that she's finished she's compiled the whole project into one post that you can see here.In between updates on Lily's picture there have been all sorts of interesting posts about portraiture--the most recent to have my attention was this one on the Male Portrait. You'll have to click through to see what I mean but it kind of shows you what things might look like if Mr. Darcy ever came back into the pages of GQ.Anyway, I've so enjoyed getting to know Enzie through this whole process and am thrilled with the results--I know...

Craft of Skin Painting
2008-07-16 03:13:00 Art seems to have been important to almost all human societies since before recorded history. Art expressions have been, and still are, used to record, to explain, to interpret, to predict, to gain awareness, and to express those things cultures find important,? wrote by Turner Rogers, an associate professor of art education at the University of South Alabama.This assertion is truer in case of Pakistan where some of the medieval arts have originated, and have not only been preserved but are practiced till date. The history of Pakistani arts and crafts ? Kashi work, painting of skin, woodworks and painting on wood items -- goes back to medieval period.Among the various arts that are practiced in Pakistan, skin painting has attained a higher state of refinement and Pakistan is famous this art around the world. The use of foliage or branches and leaves of trees and superb richness of colours (mainly blue) in skin painting is an evidence of Persian influence. As Persian arts themselves ...

"Opposites" Original Black and White Swan Oil Painting by k Madison Moore
2008-06-06 01:16:00 "Opposites"Black and White SwansclickSculptures in Paint SeriesSOLDRegistered Original Art copyright MkM 2008 k Madison Moore_________________Black SwanThe Black Swan, Cygnus atratus, is a large waterbird which breeds mainly in the southeast and southwest regions of Australia. The Black Swan was formerly placed into a monotypic genus, Chenopis.‘Swan’ is the common gender term, but ‘cob’ for a male and ‘pen’ for a female are also used, as is ‘cygnet’ for the young. Collective nouns include a ‘bank’ (on the ground) and a ‘wedge’ (in flight). Black Swans can be found singly, or in loose companies numbering into the hundreds or even thousands.Black Swans are mostly black feathered, with a line of white flight feathers of the wing edges that sometimes show when at rest, and are conspicuous in flight. The bill is bright red, with a pale bar and tip; and legs and feet are greyish-black. Cobs (males) are slightly larger than pens (females), with a longer and straigh...
