WELCOME

I have changed the title of this blog from "Figuratively Speaking" to "Primary Colors" because I have discovered the joy of painting with a limited pallette in oils. My subject matter will now include "plein air" landscapes and street scenes as well as figurative work. I am working exclusively with cadmium yellow light, cadmium red light, ultramarine blue, and titanium white. I wish to explore these colors thoroughly and discover the many color combinations possible with just this pallette. Thank you for visiting this site and I hope you will return regularly to check on my progress.

Upcoming Show


This week will be sparse with daily paintings as I am preparing for a Three Artist Show this coming weekend. I am posting a picture of an oil painting that I have just finished for the show. Entitled "Venetian Twilight", Oil on Birch Plywood, 20" x 24", it is a view of the Venice Lagoon from one of the many bridges. The foreground structures are the water bus kiosks with the beautiful Santa Maria della Salute in the background.
