I was very excited to find this morning that the above artwork, "House on the Edge of the Lake," was featured in a member selected Etsy Treasury, entitled "i love HOUSE work": http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=45133
I used acrylic paint on found 1/4" plywood. The sky and lake are painted with opaque copper and gold acrylics, which make the surface iridescent. I like the ominous, ethereal effect they create when layered over the grainy plywood. For further detail, go to http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=21802412
Yesterday I finished my latest oil. It's a 3 x 4' canvas that should really be re-stretched because the stretcher bars got warped from the gesso. Jack and our friend Anibal were rendered from a photograph I took of them mid-conversation. It's titled, "La Conversacion". I should take a better photo before posting an image here.
By the way, if anyone reading this can offer tips in the comments area re: digitally photographing oil paintings, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm having a tough time with it.
