This little gem was completed on Saturday during Art in the Park. I’ve been so busy, I completely failed to send out a note about it before. This year was interesting. Many vendors didn’t show up because of the threat of rain in the morning. Despite that, there was a really great showing in customers. I met some friends – old and new. All in all, we had a great time. The rain eased up, so the afternoon was nice and sunny. Thanks to everyone who was able to stop by. A HUGE thanks to my supporting crew (you know who you are!). I couldn’t do it every year without you!!

Now it’s back to the studio to work on a couple commissions.

Until next time…

This is another painting I started last week during the SAF Paint Out, but had to finish at home because of the rain. It’s a study of one of the many little ducks that live by the pond in Congress Park. This one in particular showed more interest in what I was doing than the others. So I snapped a couple pictures of him for this piece. He’s the second duck I’ve ever painted. The first was in the other SAF painting – Winding Stream. Did you spot him?

Blog Anniversary!
June 19th is my blog’s 4 year anniversary! In celebration, I’m doing a drawing for a free painting. All you have to do to qualify is to leave a comment on any painting on my blog that strikes you to do so between today and Saturday, 6/19 (praise or nays! I can take a little constructive criticism once a year! hehe!). I’ll pick a name from a hat on Sunday morning and announce the winner then. Good Luck!

Marsh Colors IV
pastel
3″ x 3″
SOLD to collectors in Saratoga Springs, NY.

This is the 4th, and last in the series of mini marshes. This one is also one of my favorites – it captures the marsh turning gold for fall.
A fellow pastel painter - Loriann Signori asked how my approach to a pastel differs from my work with oils. My approach is pretty similar to both, but there are a few differences. The great thing about pastels is that for me, there is little to no set-up and clean up time. So for someone with limited time in the studio, they are great to just grab and go. I still like to work on a toned background no matter which medium I’m using. Usually, my canvases are toned a pale ochre/orangey color. I’ve just started to venture out onto different toned paper for the pastels and so far, I LOVE the effects of the deep red. I always do loose sketches before I apply the paint/pastel. My oils get their texture from the thickness of my paint application, while the pastels get their texture from the actual support surface – which is usually Colorfix heavyweight paper (similiar to a very fine sandpaper). I love the immediacy of pastels for times when studio time is precious. It’s quicker for me to get the colors I want with pastels – it’s as simple as picking up a pastel stick, or layering a couple of colors to get the one I need. With oil, I sometimes have to mix several different colors to get just the right one. My oils paintings are pretty immediate too, once I have my colors mixed! I rarely work in layers, and almost always work on a painting until it is complete – never allowing the oil dry before the painting is done. I do enjoy using both for all the reasons mentioned above.

I was perusing some old photos the other day and found some from one of my favorite places; Caumsett State Park. It’s a multi-acre historical park on the north shore of Long Island. With all its wealth of beautifully inspiring scenes, I can’t believe I haven’t painted it until now! My favorites are the beautiful trails, marshes, ponds, rolling fields, giant ancient trees, and the beach overlooking the Long Island Sound. If you’re close by, it’s definitely a place to visit.
