My Bed,
Oil on Linen, 8X10

Painted on a night I was having trouble sleeping, around 2 in the morning. I used Lots of Raw Umber in my mixtures, so the paint would dry fast.

Well they always say, 'paint what you know'... and if you can't sleep, that rumpled bed becomes pretty familiar. I know that feeling! It's a really good painting. I like how you did all the folds in the fabrics. The portrait is great too, it tells a strong story. Nice work! Happy New Year!

Hey Katherine,

Thank you, and Happy New Year to you to! I really enjoyed your post on underpaintings. Love the work your doing. Your pencil work is beautiful.

Also, your right,painting what you know goes along way. Its what made the old masters great. They painted their daily surroundings.

Paint Well, and Happy New Year!
