You would not have believed this "before" I totally 
changed it! It was dark and truly just plain ugly!
I wiped it. poured alcohol on it, tilted it,
wiped it again, tilted it again,
added more alcohol.
Poor thing!
Every painting goes through an ugly stage,
but this one was the queen of ugly!
I like it now.
What do you think?

  1. I like the sky in this one … and the pink makes me think of the desert floor in pink bloom. Pretty.

    1. How interesting that you see it this way, Nancy!
      Or a field of poppies?

Touch of Pink, 5 x 7 oil, still life

Touch of Pink © Donna Pierce-Clark ~ Stages of Touch of Pink ~ First the drawing.....    ~ Then, the initial paint-in, just shapes and colors. ~ Then highlights and sparkles and dots! ~ On to the large easel........ ~ ~ Above is my large studio easel, on which I have started a 24" x 36" canvas in oils. We traveled to Rainbow Bridge on a river cruise several years ago and this canvas was actually begun soon after that trip. I think this poor canvas has been neglected for at least 3 years!  I am so happy to be back to this painting.  Below, you can see a few later stages of development and the photo reference on the computer monitor, from which I paint.  Ideally, I would prefer to be painting on location;  but, I'm happy to use the computer monitor for now. ~ To the left of the easel, I also have a still life table. If I am doing a large still life, I'll use this set up and the larger easel. At this time, howev
