a couple of studies from life




A couple of oil studies done from life (open studios). Both are done mostly with home made paints -- I have painted on and off with oils before but never really liked them much, until I started to experiment grinding my own paints & additives which make it a lot less frustrating (and thanks to the forum for a lot of useful information).

Still, I dont get it yet, which is why these studies are mostly using limited color, focusing on brush marks/handling mostly now. Color-mixing is too distracting for now.

Any feedback at all is welcome. If you can bother to spend some time with any criticism, that is doubly welcome.

Also, I hope this is the right place to post this (this forum is a labyrinth to navigate and nearly as dead as the Cretan one though hopefully not as deadly :-).
