Painting Blocks



Whaaaaa ....you say?

I became fascinated with the techniques of the Virtual Art Academy, as laid out by a terrific German artist named Thomas Ruckstuhl who managed to move from science to art with the instruction of the above mentioned art program.

He suggests doing 150 of these studies.  I've done 9.  What I learned is that I can mix better colors with acrylics than oils.

  1. Those studies remind me of things we had to do in art classes. I really love the colors in the last two, and your shadow work in all of the studies is wonderful.

  2. Great to catch up on your work! these studies sound interesting—definitely an exploration of color and light. Also love the Flight Study—that bird is so expressive and your paint handling really addresses the atmosphere. Happy holidays! Are you also Doreen Lindstedt? Great drawing!
