2024 First Art Journal Entry

Yesterday for CVP (intensive 12 week art program) we began our journal. My first painting on my journal was based on my word on how I felt. We did some exercises to discover what lights me up in life. I can tell you CVP lights me up. What are somethings that light you up? What feeds your soul?

Idea for a New Painting

Sometimes I wake up early in the morning, and I'm not a morning person, with an idea for a new painting. So I go straight to my studio, before doing anything else, and prepare the canvas. I do love the morning light coming through my windows. It's going to be a beautiful day.

Hello my art friends,

Drawn to 1876 Painting by Caillebottle

A few days ago I saw the painting "Young Man at His Window" and though I had never seen this painting before it seemed so familiar. I was drawn to it so I had to see who painted it and it was painted in 1876 by Gustave Caillebottle. It was recently acquired by the Getty Museum in Los Angeles for 53Million.  

I love painting the figure best, then I realized this painting has elements of two my paintings.  Kreida in Paris with her reflection in the window and Opera Gardnier View, with the view of the city and same balcony design.  

Sometimes I feel I am channeling an artist that lived at another time because I love details and the figure, but nowadays, I feel people are not really interested in this type of art but abstract art instead. Of course, unless it was done in the 1800's by an artist that is no longer alive.  

What are your thoughts? Would you put a painting of a figure in your home? Do you prefer abstract, and if so, why? 

With Love,
Glad

Making Bernardine Evaristo Portrait

This is quick time-lapsed video of six hours of work on Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Week sitter Bernardine Evaristo, who is an author. Loved her colorful presence and even her background bookcase.
