“Palo Alto Figure”

 

 

9” x 12” Oil on Canvas Board

 

 

Hello My Friends,

 

This is the painting for you today.

 

The conference is over, but I am still in California. Today I went Palo Alto Art Center with two of my artist friends in the bay area. I did this oil sketch. I have not painted figures for a loooong time. It was a good experiment. If you like to have it, Please let me know. The price is $200 + $10 shipping.

“Small Black Jar”

 

 

5” x 6” Oil on Canvas

 

 

Hello My Friends,

 

This is the painting for you today.

 

This one is a almost monochromatic painting. I am working on the values which I consider the most important element of a painting.

“Fresh Oranges”

 

 

6” x 6” Oil on Canvas

 

 

Hello My Friends,

 

This is the painting for you today.

 

We bought some oranges with leafs. I used them immediately for my painting. The leafs gave more texture to the composition. In addition, I had my subjects set on a reflective surface. Did I do a good job on painting the reflections? Hard to say.

“Brushes Washed”

 

 

6” x 6” Oil on Canvas

 

 

Hello My Friends,

 

This is the painting for you today.

 

I did this painting to commemorate my failure of entering the International Salon Show this year. This is the 4th time that the Greenhouse gallery rejects my work to be shown in their gallery. I used to think their rejection indicating my art is not good enough, but not this time, because this data point is so inconsistent with the performance of my art in other galleries and art communities, but so consistent with their decisions. This gallery does not like my work for sure. That is their opinion, but I should not use it to judge the quality of my work anymore. My brushes have been washed, but it is not because I am pity myself and quit painting. I am prepared to enter the larger world. I would rather be a wild flower, enjoying the sun and rain in nature, than a special orchid living in a greenhouse (no offence to my fellow artists who are in the show. I congratulate you whole heartily to your achievement).
