I prepared the background, with a few bold splashes of acrylic before the class, I seem to do that a lot as it sets the choice of pastel, and adds an extra depth to the finished image. click on it to see the line work.

This is a new painting, on masonite, ( wood panel. ) with a nice textural finish, I enjoyed playing with<br />
both the oil and acrylic on this one, ( it follows emerging 1 and 2 which sold very quickly ) it looks like the sort of image you would see looking out the window on a train journey into any big city I also used gold paint, so in different lights you catch<br />
glimpses of gold. it is about a meter in width by 65 cm deep.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06384791518377192001noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236328940223464614.post-2964552398773402022016-04-30T22:30:00.000-07:002016-05-18T21:09:19.442-07:00Old drawing.( sold )<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

How good is this little painting...!! another new one by Valerie, it's taken from a view near Daylesford<br />
it's oil on canvas, and is about 30cm x 30cm, Valerie knows her colours so well,<br />
and she is doing something that is entirely original, and unique, very rare these days. if you are interested in purchasing, email me on rogerrobertsart@gmail.com for price etc.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06384791518377192001noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236328940223464614.post-55606348171531789872016-03-24T23:50:00.001-07:002016-03-24T23:50:39.123-07:00Landscape.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
