Magnolias


I’m working on the painting of the Magnolias in the Blue Bucket and this morning added a cat napping alongside.  It’s an interesting challenge, calculating the light reflected and filtered, the shadows and angles. It’s a very pretty painting, a kind of wonderful painting, and different from paintings I normally do I think. 

Well, who knows; I’m no longer sure.  I still have so much to learn and want to get close as I may perfecting, well no mastering, knowing my trade.

Magnolias in Blue Bucket & Cat, End of Day

Lovely Magnolias blossoms and their leaves crowding into a sweet old tin bucket in a big open room. The sleepy eye of a wily cat watching your every move as you enter the room.
