another still life, first i sketched with grey and black oil pastel. on topd i added some colors, then blended with turpentine and continued adding more colors + blackand white or some complementary for the shadows. took me about an hour to make it (35×50 cm approx)

painting in the garden

i’m attending an 8-weeks-summer course at a museum, which has a wonderful Andaluz garden (as a garden in Andalucía – Spain). the teacher makes us see the shapes, the contrasts, the colours, the different greens we see, etc, without making details which is too difficult for me, because I always tend to go till the most tiny detail if I can. working with watercolurs in the last years has helped me in that, though in this case, these two works i did this mornig, i used oil pastels to make some shapes then blurred it with turpentine and a strong brush and kept on adding more oil pastel, tried to blend it in some places and not in others.

today at school we went out to the sidewalk to paint some trees, but i ended up doing this sketch, and which of course couldn’t finish. the fact is that most trees in that block were without any leaves as we’re still in winter. i’ll continue it later i guess since the tree is mostly unfinished yet
