Camp Stables, 8 x 10
sold
As promised, here is a painting I just did using a study I did on-site from our Plein Air Austin trip. As I mentioned, I wasn't pleased with several of my plein air pieces--for a variety of reasons. The way my paint was taking to the canvas was one of them--I've since determined that the panels I was using seem to absorb more paint than the one I used here. I really liked the way the paint stands on top of this panel--it's a Pannelli Telati canvas panel from Jerry's. I've been using RayMar, which I like for other reasons, but I think I'll be gessoing the remainder I have to get the results I want. Like anything, it's a learning process.
This stable is one of Camp Waldemar's, in Hunt, Texas. It's the first subject our group of four stopped to paint on our recent PAA annual trip.

Hi Julie,
This is amazing. I am always surprised when you are unhappy with a painting -- because your work is so good. So I'm glad you're happy with this one. Wonderful as always.

Very nice, Julie! I can "feel" the texture of the stable!Nice composition!
Lovely, Julie. You can just feel the sunshine with your great light and shadows..also with such a wide variety of greens.
Beautiful piece, Julie. You even changed the angle, didn't you. I especially like the variety of colors in the piece and the way they direct the viewer to the subject.
Also, agreed on the panels. The raymar seem to have too much tooth, though I've only tried the single-primed linen. Not sure how much the double-primed, or cotton, would change it.
Hi Julie, Nice color and composition. I really like your style!
Great job w/ the barn. Love the mixture of cools and warms in this piece. I've recently tried the Ampersand cradled panel. Bought 4 tried, 1 so far and my painting just flowed! Don't know if it was the panel, the subject, or me!
Really nice Julie!
Beautiful!! I like the colors, shadows, composition - all of it!
Great job, Julie! This is beautiful! I love the big shapes, the colors, and the touches of detail.
Gorgeous!
love IT!!
