Erik's Pond, 30x40 oil on linen |
Those of you who read my blog this summer would have followed this painting from the very beginning. Actually before the beginning since I started posting about the commission when I showed you the four 8x10 studies I did for Erik to choose from. After that I posted the progress of the painting from the underpainting, through the "tunnel of ugly" to it's emergence as the finished painting. I am very pleased with it and more importantly Erik was:)
Thank you Erik for sending this photo. It is great to be able to see it in place! I have no idea where most of my paintings are and I sometimes wonder about them. I hope it will live in this place and be a source of pleasure for Erik and his family for a long time.
Tomorrow I will show you what I have been doing for the last couple of days. The fall weather has been spectacular so I have been outdoors virtually all day everyday and have been off painting with friends and riding my horse. I got one good painting under way thanks to Friday's paint out but the painting from Thursday is screaming for help! http://www.jeanschwartzpaintings.com/
