Art Diary - Seventeen

Work in progress 

In the Studio right now working on the seventh painting in the Gold Coast, Queensland series. My progress is super fast. This is a 16×24 inches painting with lots of detailed work. But I progressing so fast. I've been painting large size watercolor paintings for two weeks now and I can see the power of being consistent. My painting speed as improved along with my watercolor painting skills and creative energy.

Table setting painting in progress 

I love the look of the dessert with the golden fork. This table setting is a very detailed work and I had to practice patience even though I have none. But, it pays off. Because the table cloth and the St life objects are looking good. The teapot will be the last thing I paint because it has a very intricate floral design. So, I have to think about how to paint it in my own creative way. 

Flower vase painting in progress 

I will be working on the flowers in the glass vase after a one hour break. The flowers are colorful and I can't wait to paint them. I haven't decided if I want to do a realistic style or impressionism style for the flowers or maybe I should do both to see how it will turn out. The flowers in the vase may come out looking unique. 

I think I may finish the whole painting today. Which will be a big surprise and the first time I finished a painting this size on the same day. 

I'm curious!
