    #DoodlewashMarch2021 prompts: Potatoes. Did you know that potato blossoms used to be fashionable? Marie Antoinette made them all the rage when she wore one in her hair. Out of all the brush shapes, I find the rigger the hardest to use. I decided that I\'d use one to try and get all those potato field perspective lines lined up. Phew! Only took about 5 times longer than it needed to, lol. I also remembered why I don\'t do perspective too often. It\'s kind of boring. I made some compositional choices that I\'m not over pleased with. One of those case where I fell in love with details but they don\'t really help the overall painting.

      Sandra, this is gorgeous and you give us such good information. Most, pretty much all, of my paintings are done with just one brush, a #4 round with a veth pointy tip. Inalso tend to get lost in the details.

        Thank you, Brenda! I tend to do most of my painting with rounds, and though I use different sizes, usually I use one size per painting. I’ve been trying to stop that. You can do some interesting things with the different shapes if you practice with them enough. I was pushing with the rigger. They’re really only meant for long thin lines, like…[Read more]

    I don’t paint plein air (from life) too often. I know I should because you get a better sense of perspective. I decided to paint the view from my living room window. I’ll admit that I had a photo I’d taken earlier on my laptop, taken with a Zoom lens, so I could verify detail, but I tried not to reference it unless I was getting lost. Next…[Read more]

      Beautiful painting, Sandra. You have an amazing view from your window. Do you mind me asking what state you live in?

        Thank you, Gary! I live in Oregon.

          It lloks like a vert green state. I see lots of national forests on Google earth. I can see why you were so concerned about the fires.

          • Profile picture of Sandra Strait
            Sandra Strait replied 6 days, 19 hours ago

            Yes. Oregon is careful to protect its forests. We haven’t allowed as much building or huge recreational sites like most states have. 2/3 of the state is semi-arid, but the forested areas get lots (LOTS) of rainfall. Fires didn’t use to be a big problem. Between climate change and increasing population though, it’s getting drier every year.

          I wish birds were active in my yard. But we do get dragonflies occasionally

            We get those too! We used to get lots of nutria, but they were all removed. I know they’re considered pests, but I enjoyed their visits.
