Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.615

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the Main Street, Cold Spring, NY painting. The photo that I'm using is seen directly below. I'll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 5x7 inch canvas.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

I've repainted the partial tree to the far rear, now seen in all green. I've also revised slightly the sidewalk at its far end. Along the sidewalk, I've revised the shadows in front of the building. There is now just a bit of green showing in the curved portions. The partial building up front has had some overpainting of red. Finally, I've started the brick front of the first full building.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.

Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.614

Hello again painting fans.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

There are many changes for this week's cycle. Over on the sidewalk/street side, the tree has now been reduced and separated into two. I intend to revise the distant one. The sidewalk and street have been repainted as well as the shadows to the left. Note the revised strip of grass adjacent to the street. Finally, the foreground storefront has been repainted as well.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.

Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.613

Hello again painting fans.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

I began this week's changes with the storefront to the far left. I've added another layer of paint. The ledge at the top has been started. Below, the shadows at the base have been started. Toward the rear, I've added the last few buildings, or at least the start of same. Along the sidewalk there are now shadows as well as the tree trunk.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.

Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.612

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the Main Street, Cold Spring, NY painting. The photo that I'm using is seen directly below. I'll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 5x7 inch canvas.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

There are a number of changes for this week's cycle. To the far rear, I've reshaped the tree(s). The former version was far too much. I've also continued to fill in some of the building elements. Note the window details. The door arch now has depth and awaits shadows and a door. Right now it looks a bit like a partially completed jigsaw puzzle.

The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.
