Peggy's Cove

Unknown Sunday, November 29, 2009
I painted this one for Bill Guffy's virtual paintout blog. Each month he posts a location and artists pick a spot to paint using Google's streetview maps. This is the second month that I have participated and I am really enjoying it. I almost missed getting one done this month because of travel and the holidays but I barely squeaked it in before the month ended. I can't wait til Tuesday to see where the next location will be. This is done in oils which is much easier and faster for me to do than watercolors. My oil paintings are very simplistic because it's a fairly new medium for me but as I get more experience I hope to develop more depth, detail and interesting color. I still feel like I'm fighting with the paints because of their thickness. I'm so comfortable with the fluidity of watercolor and silk dyes that I'm feeling a bit out of my element with oils.
