Oil painting challenge

Good Morning!

Today, the painting is not for sale. It is a challenge painting. Once in awhile I do something like this to sharpen my skills, keep my painting fresh and promote my creativity. This painting was done in less than 30 minutes. Obviously not my best work, but I am getting better at it. I'm seeing things I didn't see the last time I tried it. This painting was finished in 24 minutes. Although it's not something I would sell, it's not so bad.
Until Monday.

Enjoy,
Glynis

Good Morning!
Yesterday, I was going through some of my old paintings. In the interest of being "green", I often recycle canvas and stretchers. Once in awhile, I find a surprise. Yesterday, it was a forgotten painting from last year.

Good Morning,
I was painting with friends yesterday and this is the result of my work. A painting with a lot of blue and grey tones. Oddly, it's the second time in a week I have painted the studio scene. If you are interested in seeing the other painting, it's featured on my website: http://www.glynisberger.com/
Until tomorrow,
Glynis

Good Morning!
It's spring and once again, my thoughts turn to Montauk. I go there every spring with the intention to paint. It rarely works out that way. Spring in Montauk is cold and windy, but beautiful. It lends itself more to photography than pleinair painting.
Winslow loves the beach and the cold weather, so it's a good vacation for him. I always have a good time, regardless of weather.
I have a larger painting of this dune from a different angle. You can view it on my website: http://www.glynisberger.com/ It's called "Dune" (go figure).
Enjoy,
Glynis
PS. Happy Birthday, Nancy.

Good Morning,
It's Monday and daylight savings is creating havoc for my house. It always takes awhile to get used to it. I have enough trouble keeping up, so I'm not really pleased about losing an hour.
Last week, I was painting with friends. Jennifer remarked that she thought my driveby series would have more blur to them. I thought they were blurred, but she said that she would like to see more. I guess I wasn't driving fast enough. It sounded like a good idea to me, so here's the first with some "acceleration".
Thanks, Jennifer... This one's for you.
Enjoy,
Glynis
