Paw #17 :: Orange Slice 04
The fourth of the series, I particularly like the starkness and angle of the shadow. I did tweak the painting more after this shot was taken. When I re-shoot it I’ll post it up.

PAW #16 :: Orange Slice 03
I am on a roll with these orange slices. I still have a few tweaks to make to this one but overall it is complete.

PAW #15 :: Orange Slice 02
Sixteen weeks into 2008 and I just finished number fifteen. Not bad, only one behind. I don’t really see it as being behind so much as seeing that I created fifteen paintings so far.
These last two have been great. The watercolour underpainting adds so much for me. It changes the entire dimension of painting. Whether or not to underpaint in a complimentary colour or just an opposite value. It’s a great blast. This one will be available in the gallery shortly.

PAW #14 :: Orange Slice 01
This is another study of a soon to be much larger painting. I used a complimentary watercolour underpainting for the first time. I have been meaning to use this technique for some time now. I will call it a success. This will be available to purchase in the Gallery soon.

PAW #13 :: Spoon
Falling a little behind these last three weeks. Number 14 and 15 to come soon. The spoon is a study to my up and coming ‘Espresso’ painting I am working on. More or less looking at colours that I could use. In this case a leaned towards blues.
