                                                                 Contemporary Painting


My first cityscape painting in progress with a palette knife. The sunset makes little things here and there glow like at no other time of the day.  The bright under painting helps me not to forget my mission. This painting is more of a study for a much larger one, but it is my first and I have much to learn. I might be getting a bit more painting in as the forecast this morning said we could get 6-10 inches of snow tonight.  Not really a shocker. My phone has been delivering similar texts almost daily for the last month.

Here is some inspiration from Eli Klein in New York, "Negative feelings from viewers of an exhibition are often indicators of a successful show. It's much better for the audience to leave thinking about the artwork, even in a negative way, than with no emotional response at all." Don't you love this?
