Anatomy of a Painting - Day 2 - Western Landscape Painted with a Credit Card - Carol Hein

Painting With A Credit Card

20 X 20 Original Western Landscape Oil Painting Painting.  I may name it Adobe Spring

Still some more work to do but I am finding that painting with an old credit card is fun!  Lately I have heard about artists painting with masonry trowels, rubber brayers, spatulas, and squeegees.  Think I'll try them all.

Anatomy of a Painting - Western Landscape Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein

Last month I went to Santa Fe with my good friend Kim Conrad.  There was so much art, so many new ideas and methods - it was overwhelming.  I came home determined to try some new things and I thought you might enjoy the journey.  Here we go.  This may be a colossal failure but you don't grow by standing still.  What the heck, a canvass can always be painted over.

After blocking in the major shapes with a large brush I am going to paint the picture with a credit card instead of brushes.

More progress to follow tomorrow.

Colorado Afternoon - Original Colorado Landscape Oil Painting by Carol Hen

We had one of those spectacular Colorado afternoons last week when the clouds begin to build along the front range and the mountains melted into the sky.  I was visiting a friend just east of Parker and caught this view as I rounded a bend in the road on the way home.

Gotta love Colorado!
