An Art Journey: My Back Yard
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/05/my-back-yard.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Saturday, May 16, 2015. I'm still trying to get into the groove of working small and working more often, as I seem to keep finding things that keep me away from the easel. If I only need 30 minutes for a small painting I'm likely to do it more often! Trying to get back into the groove. I started losing the light since I started latish, so had to stop. Will have to see if I think I can salvage it tomorrow perhaps. NE Florida, United States.

An Art Journey: Finlay
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/01/finlay.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Saturday, January 31, 2015. I'm still enjoying playing with acrylics. This is a little 8x10 I did with acrylics of my granddaughter Finlay - combining a couple photos from a day we spent at Fort Beausejour in New Brunswick, Canada. I finished it up fairly quickly as a Christmas gift for my son and daughter-in-law. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NE Florida, United States.

An Art Journey: Gold Head Branch Two
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/07/gold-head-branch-two.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Wednesday, July 01, 2015. Gold Head Branch Two. Pastels are still and always will be my first love, but they have a couple related drawbacks that make me think about other mediums from time to time. 1) They never "dry" like oil or acrylic - good in that you can always go back to them to touch up or make changes, but bad in that they must always be protected. But today I decided to try again using the same reference photo. Debbie has loved na...

An Art Journey: Jean's Lemons (one)
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/05/jeans-lemons-one.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Friday, May 08, 2015. This is still rough and probably not done, just in the "let's wait a bit and then take a look stage". But I did it! I sat down at my easel. I have a lot of people to thank whose various efforts led me to this afternoon:. Who donated the book "Daily Painting" by Carol Marine to the First Coast Pastel Society lending library. 2) Kay Deuben - our FCPS librarian, who let me be the first person to check the book out. Debbie ...

An Art Journey: The Hummingbird Feeder
http://www.dcusickart.com/2008/08/hummingbird-feeder.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Wednesday, August 20, 2008. While I was cleaning stuff up at the farm I discovered a little hummingbird feeder that had belonged to my mom years ago, and I could not resist making up a sugar-water solution and hanging it from the front porch. Within a day we had hummers! I was happy to watch them on and off all day long, so finally had to paint them as well. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NE Florida, United States.

An Art Journey: Hummingbird
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/07/hummingbird.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Thursday, July 16, 2015. I think hummingbirds are so adorable. When I come up here to Maritime Canada every summer one of the first things I do is put up my hummingbird feeder, and the hummers usually discover it that very same day, or the next day at the very latest. It's so funny to watch they perching on the power lines also as they are so tiny. My original hummingbird feeder. Broke last summer, but I brought a new one up this year! But D...

JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Sunday, July 19, 2015. It was a raw, rainy, chilly and windy day here in maritime Canada today. The heavy rains kept knocking out my satellite internet connection. But right now the rains have stopped although it's still windy and overcast, but the connection is alive again.

An Art Journey: Bottle glass
http://www.dcusickart.com/2015/07/bottle-glass.html
JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Friday, July 31, 2015. I love the glass bottles that sit on the window ledge here at the farm. I hesitate to paint them though, I can never seem to draw them symmetrically. But I decided to try today, on another sheet of 6x8 Art Spectrum. But as I suspected the bottles came out all lopsided and asymmetric. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NE Florida, United States. But Debbie veered away from art in her teen years.

JOIN ME IN MY DISCOVERIES OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE NATURAL WORLD. Wednesday, May 20, 2015. I'm still trying to keep up with the "work small, work often" philosophy of the book Daily Painting by Carol Marine. It's helping me get a little bit more into the groove to do small paintings I need spend only 20-30 minutes on, not a daunting amount of time! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
