Franktown Barn - 24 by 30 original oil painting by Colorado artist Carol Hein

This is one of my favorite barns in Franktown.  I was out last winter on a cold, snowy day trying to capture the beauty in the rolling hills near my home.  Did a quick sketch earlier this year to work out composition and color.  Just finished the final painting this morning.

"Rush Hour" - 20 by 30 Inch Original Oil Painting by Carol Hein


"Rush Hour" 20 by 30 inch original oil painting by Carol Hein.

This was an old, old photo of New York City that I always loved because of the pattern created by the light and dark shapes.  Much of it was worked upside down so that I wouldn't be tempted to paint "things" instead of shapes.

"Pigeon Cove" is an 8 by 10 original oil painting, framed and ready to hang.

5.22.14 Original Abstract Oil Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein


30 by 24 inch original abstract oil painting by Carol Hein.

Those who have been following my blog know that I completed 6 months of study with Kevin Weckbach in May.  The second part of the year long class started two weeks ago.  Approximately half of this class are "repeaters" from the fall.  More tried to continue but the class was full.  The "repeaters" start with bigger canvasses and oil paints.  Our first assignment was a larger abstract.  I used an assortment of brushes and pallet knives.  It's a shame that the picture doesn't show the paint quality.  We have another week of abstract work.  I get to start a new one - and then on to dark light pattern.

This abstract is for sale.  It's on 2 inch deep canvas which will be painted black.  Once the paint dries it will be varnished and ready to hang.  Right now it's drying on my dining room wall.  I really like the way it looks against the putty color in the dining room.
