Orange & Saki Cup



Today I coated a blank panel with GALKYD LITE medium, this stuff is really working for me.  I guess other mediums would would work just as will, but I never tried coating the panel first, I got this from a DAVID SHEVLINO video.  Check him out.

Brush & Saki Cup

Today I pulled out a picture I had painted some months back, I liked the composition but not the brush work, so I put a thin coat of GALKYD LITE medium on it and started painting into that.  I like this!

My wife  told me I better do chopped onions, not diced onions, thank you Karen.  This is the last onion I'm painting for now I have to move on.

Onion Skin

I decided to use a white onion for a study of the skin.  I painted this one yesterday but this morning the onion looked to white.  It's a value problem, not a color issue, so I repainted it today.

I like the spiral /s  composition but usually I don't analyze a composition to much, if it feels right in my thumb nail sketches, I go with it.  Here it is after the adjustments I made today.
