Lorraine’s Koi Fish

 

      Today was all about fish and I loved every minute of this class.  My home on the water has a sea side feeling from the inside out and I can already imanage the future paintings I’d like to create to fill my walls.  I had a great time learning so many things about fish, their shapes, & sizes, their movement in water and most important, their eyes. Those eye sockets are challenging.

Lian's Paintings of Fish Eyes

Here you can see Lian’s painting of fish eyes. He paints so realistic yet his style is so loose and flowing with color. ___________________________________________________________

Last painting of the workshop

 This week was filled with many new and fun  techniques that I will use to help me fill my paintings with more  excitement. The only disappointment I felt this week was that I didn’t get to fininsh any one painting. So, I’ll be out in my studio spending many hours working and enjoying it. I won’t be happy till I see some completed paintings.  I’ll be busy  having a wonderful time painting  the next week or two, what do you have planned?  Why don’t you  

 Paint with Me
