Adjusting-sold

Oil on stretched canvas, 6" x 8"
Another image from the RISD street fair. The difficult thing in painting these is editing; there is so much going on in the background, people milling around, trees, buildings, and all kinds of extraneous stuff. I decided here to focus  on the light hitting the objects in the foreground and to subdue everything else.

Really like the light and dark values, the loose rendering and the touches of pure color. Nice painting.

Kathy, I'm really enjoying these figure paintings. Clean and fresh and to the point.
