En plein air

I moved my work space around a bit today...took time to drag my easel, table, chair, Pinky, msc paint and canvases out on the porch today to paint for a few hours...it was nice to work outside, definitely worth the hassle of moving everything...then I moved it all back inside, back to normal except the extra table is in the kitchen to accommodate the numerous canvases that are in progress...oh yeah, so that is what I was working on- the large tree painting...starting to 'carve out' some of the faces from the tree and adding some hair details...this one might take a while, I really get focused on one area (pic to the right shows where I stopped before heading out for lunch)...then I worked on some paintings for the Art Nouveau Harry Potter live-art event that this coming Wednesday.  I have ten 8x10 canvases that I am painting little owls one, some have ties, others are wearing t-shirts. At one point I brought some of my art supplies in the living room to paint while I watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire...had to be extra careful...did not want acrylic paint on the couch or floor...no mishaps, whew!  ....on a bit of a weird sleep schedule...need to sleep now...

The pictures below just show my make shift outside studio, working from the couch and then the final grouping…well, for tonight anyway, nothing is done…lot’s more to do!
