Winter Won't Last Forever winter painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Winter Won't Last Forever winter landscape painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

I was thinking about warmer weather and sunshine. I wanted to go out and paint today in the great outdoors but it is cool and windy. I am afraid the I don't even want to admit it to myself but I went out painting the other day and I must have arthritis because it was kinda cool and my fingers sure did ache for some while afterward. I enjoyed pushing the blue shadows and decided as an after thought to add the warm yellow flowers gently popping their heads up out of the frozen snow. Maybe tomorrow will be warm. Snow scape painted on 5x7 canvas panel.

Midnight Desert camel painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Why paint a Camel? Well! because it has eyes and eye lashes of course. 

Why wouldn't I? You might also want to know that yes I do realize that their eyes are not blue but for today at this moment in time this one does. When you first looked at this did your mind tell you it was a camel. If so then my goal was accomplished and who cares if his eyes are blue right?

I painted this little snail mostly because of the antenna or feelers or whatever they are called and the shadow. Why else would anyone paint a snail unless they are weird. OK, OK maybe it is the last thing I mentioned. 4x4 oil painting on canvas panel. Nature, animals

Stand Off sheep painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Stand Off sheep painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

I was keeping my grand daughter today and she suggested that I go paint... What a novel idea. Of course I said yes. This is the result. I had fun with it if you can not already tell. I had trouble once again with camera glare. I have tried so many approaches to it but still I am bothered by spots of glare. This is really a cute painting. 5x7 oil on canvas panel, animal

Banana Split banana painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Banana Split banana painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

I will tell you that to the ordinary eye this may just look like any old banana but to the trained eye you will notice a lot of mid tones and if you squint a lot you will notice a small area of light that would be on the fruit itself and then there is a small amount of dark dark's. Yep it was all intentional. I don't know if I achieved what I intended but I am definitely closer than I was. I read somewhere that to add interest you need varied amounts of dark, lights and mid tones. Those tips of black were on purpose not accident. I am actually giving a lot more thought to the painting process and therefore my paintings must get better...right?  5x7 still life oil on canvas panel.

Hunter by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

It may not seem like it but this was quite challenging. I am pleased with the results but it was hard to paint. I am especially satisfied with the tongue. Bet you didn't even notice that part. This is a 5x7 oil on canvas panel. The original is much brighter than captured here.
