The larger design is on the back with a mini-accent onthe front.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Color Note: This clipboard is charcoal gray/black withmedium gray accents. I mix colors for each piece individually, so the exactshades of each color may vary slightly from one piece to the next. This “NatureSymbols” series coordinates well together because the same paints are mixed tocreate the gray and charcoal colors.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Another highlight of these clipboards is the brushstrokepattern. They look hand-painted with care, and the marks of theprocess are still visible, adding to the sense that each is one of a kind.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-3485709365052694182?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/3485709365052694182/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/12/fire-and-sea.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/3485709365052694182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/3485709365052694182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/12/fire-and-sea.html' title='Fire and Sea'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-E58zicU74ls/TuauaKkDrHI/AAAAAAAAA0s/1xzTdZnyOXs/s72-c/NatureSymbolClips1121_G_web.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-1279872227048515579</id><published>2011-12-12T18:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-12T18:38:00.147-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clip'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clipboard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stylized'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='9 X 12'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='board'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painted'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstract'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='symbolism'/><title type='text'>Mountain and Stream</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The larger design is on the back with a mini-accent onthe front.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Color Note: This clipboard is charcoal gray/black withmedium gray accents. I mix colors for each piece individually, so the exactshades of each color may vary slightly from one piece to the next. This “NatureSymbols” series coordinates well together because the same paints are mixed tocreate the gray and charcoal colors.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Another highlight of these clipboards is the brushstrokepattern. They look lovingly hand-painted with care, and the marks of theprocess are still visible, adding to the sense that each is one of a kind.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-1279872227048515579?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/1279872227048515579/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/12/mountain-and-stream.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/1279872227048515579'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/1279872227048515579'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/12/mountain-and-stream.html' title='Mountain and Stream'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tj26fUAb7S4/TuasPvfb7nI/AAAAAAAAAz8/jt-uBSM_5c4/s72-c/NatureSymbolClips1118_E_web.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-4999464281445271463</id><published>2011-12-11T06:07:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-12T17:29:06.936-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clipboard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='9 X 12'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='symbolism'/><title type='text'>Stone &amp;

I wanted to try grasping the vibrancy of the blue you see before sunrise. The time when it’s not really that close to the sun actually peeking over the horizon. It’s that first light you see before you even realize it’s going to be morning soon. This is often the best and coolest part of the day, especially in places where it’s hot in the summer. Night animals are still out, while the daytime animals are waking up. I’ve seen bats at this time of the morning- always very exciting!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;In this painting, the sun is up, but not yet visible behind the clouds. This is one moment of a sunrise captured. In less than a minute the sky will look completely different.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object width="320" height="266" class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://3.gvt0.com/vi/cvYFWg7xBCM/0.jpg"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cvYFWg7xBCM&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" /&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /&gt;&lt;embed width="320" height="266"  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/cvYFWg7xBCM&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-6426148076473308530?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/6426148076473308530/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/09/blue-sunrise-02.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/6426148076473308530'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/6426148076473308530'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/09/blue-sunrise-02.html' title='Blue Sunrise 02'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5Ee93tStLUI/Tm0ot8TdBJI/AAAAAAAAAsQ/2K19Rra12yk/s72-c/Blue+Sunrise_02_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-8190159832787610104</id><published>2011-07-24T16:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-24T16:49:55.490-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cool colors'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clip'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Etsy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='organizer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='facebook'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='board'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fashion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fall'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painting nature'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blue'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic'/><title type='text'>Terrace Garden</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

A painting in a practical form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These clipboards were really fun to make and I can't wait to try out new designs/colors. Originally I tried to buy acrylic clipboards to paint and found that it's a lot of trouble to work around the clip and it didn't have the "finished" look I was going for. I found a way to paint the boards first before assembling and liked the look a lot better. So here is an example of the finished product. I'll keep posting more as they become available at my Etsy shop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The designs will change as I practice new techniques. Right now, I'm focusing on abstract designs and only 1 or 2 colors in order to keep it simple while I'm still in the beginning stages. I tend toward nature-themed paintings even in the abstract, but I really like how the stripes came out too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're interested in a clipboard and you need it shipped internationally, please let me know. I'll research the cost of shipping and we can definitely work something out.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-5126881607608276663?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/5126881607608276663/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/07/art-on-clip.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/5126881607608276663'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/5126881607608276663'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/07/art-on-clip.html' title='Art on a Clip'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BBLqW0STSCE/TiMI_0ZbbJI/AAAAAAAAAqU/XIsSAL_JiAM/s72-c/1105+front_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-3147421474688095891</id><published>2011-06-25T18:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T18:16:00.217-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dots'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstract'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blue'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='yellow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='curve'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='8 X 10'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fly'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='artist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acrylic painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='affordable'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='red'/><title type='text'>Abstract 36 Points</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;

I wanted to try grasping the vibrancy of the blue you see before sunrise. The time when it’s not really that close to the sun actually peeking over the horizon. It’s that first light you see before you even realize it’s going to be morning soon. This is often the best and coolest part of the day, especially in places where it’s hot in the summer.

Past these *bushes* in the distance is a very interesting bridge that protects the road from the flooding that occurs in the wet season or when the farmers have to tend to their fields. It has been my personal mission every time I travel past this spot to get a picture of this bridge in the fields. I miss it every time because the gap in the bushes is so small. By the time I snap the picture, I'm past the opening! I have to figure out how snap my picture just before I see the bridge- but all the bushes look the same in that area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few miles past this is a place where people learn to skydive. My reference photo for this painting was taken there. I'd love to see the world from above without the droning sounds of an airplane engine and sardine seating. Perhaps a hot air balloon is more my style.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take a look at my blog to see more of my work:&lt;br /&gt;http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com &lt;br /&gt;I moderate the comments on my blog so if you have any questions about a painting or want information about international shipping, please leave a comment and your contact info. Your comment won't be published if it's made on the "Contact Me" page,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or you may convo me through Etsy- just click the “contact” at my shop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a short video of this painting:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdhReUKg-D8&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-3207581519956131110?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/3207581519956131110/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/05/parachute-01.html#comment-form' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/3207581519956131110'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/3207581519956131110'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2011/05/parachute-01.html' title='Parachute 01'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-22epmaE1Rug/TcqV84q7B3I/AAAAAAAAAps/NFCAZPznm4o/s72-c/Parachute_01_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-2459056626256630846</id><published>2011-04-03T17:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-03T17:43:55.434-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Orchard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='road'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='trees'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abstract'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='canvas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blue'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Etsy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lanscape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='original'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oil painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='8 X 10'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='purple'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='red'/><title type='text'>Sunset Abstract</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Even better- they have a terraced garden in the back and anyone can go there during the day, buy a carafe of wine and spend hours overlooking the rooftops of beautiful Tokaj. There's no place quite like it in the world. They still have a lot of the old architecture and charm that lost in more modern towns.

It's on the trail that leads to the tower overlooking the region. It's the same scene I posted previously in watercolor, though I think I like the oil painting a lot better. There's a little glare on the dark parts of the trees in the middle. I have a little trouble getting a good photograph of my darker paintings. I want to see the details so I need some light, but they are pretty glossy and reflect a lot. Let's just say it looks better in person.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;h1 class="firstHeading" id="firstHeading" style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;I was interested in the light vs. dark contrast between the trees in the foreground and the forest and water in the background. There's also the dappled shade of the path. Dark forests always appeal to me.

I am always impressed by the could formations just before a storm. Most of these photo sessions are followed by a mad dash to shelter because of intense rain or lightning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pictures in the middle where the sky is half sunny yellow and half brooding purple were the most dramatic. It was like the clouds that a re normally in a higher atmospheric layer came down to ground level. I drove home fast to unplug everything immediately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last two were very interesting in person- I don't think it quite came off in the photo but the clouds were rolling and booking along at a fast pace across the sky like they had somewhere to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe you'll recognize the sunset.&amp;nbsp; ;) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://explodingdoughnut.blogspot.com/2010/07/wordless-wednesday-chicago-storm-from.html"&gt;If you want to see storm photos that are even more dramatic and the blog post that inspired my post, check out Dean Grey's awesome blog Exploding Donut!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-7737859741497225823?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/7737859741497225823/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/09/dramatic-storms.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/7737859741497225823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/7737859741497225823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/09/dramatic-storms.html' title='Dramatic Storms'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TIT0yF3aqdI/AAAAAAAAAfI/gHww79SFLb4/s72-c/clouds_feb22nd08+006_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-5303429043426031105</id><published>2010-09-04T14:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-04T14:38:00.132-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fern'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='house'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oil painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='botanical'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rainbow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='overcast'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tree'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cityscape'/><title type='text'>Fern</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/THRvkU5ZAaI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/qTkiNj0EjFg/s1600/fern+July_August09+066_websize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/THRvkU5ZAaI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/qTkiNj0EjFg/s320/fern+July_August09+066_websize.jpg" /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Fern&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Oil on textured stretched canvas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;16 X 20&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;This fern was so much fun to paint. A professor once told me "You'll never have enough shades of green."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;He was most definitely right when it comes to landscape or botanical paintings. I prefer to make my own greens and I'm always challenged to find just the right ones. When I was preparing the colors for this fern I tried to make it so each time I loaded the brush I got a lightly different mix. Sometimes the paint will even blend differently for each brushstroke. I like colors that are *almost* mixed so you'll streaks of the different components. At this point I'm still working on controlling all this to my advantage. I hope you enjoy!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;iframe class="youtube-player" frameborder="0" height="364" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Idl-GLKmsK0?hl=en_US" type="text/html" width="445"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-5303429043426031105?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/5303429043426031105/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/09/fern.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/5303429043426031105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/5303429043426031105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/09/fern.html' title='Fern'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/THRvkU5ZAaI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/qTkiNj0EjFg/s72-c/fern+July_August09+066_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-1814534188452240213</id><published>2010-08-24T21:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-24T21:56:00.109-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stretched canvas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oil painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sunset'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='landscape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='textured'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cityscape'/><title type='text'>Sunset</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="background-color: #444444; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/THRz7_L4E5I/AAAAAAAAAec/s8BwGCycv54/s1600/sunsetNFS+112_websize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/THRz7_L4E5I/AAAAAAAAAec/s8BwGCycv54/s320/sunsetNFS+112_websize.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;Sunset&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;Oil on textured, stretched canvas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;16 X 20&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #444444; color: black;"&gt;I really didn't notice (I swear) that I'd painted a spiral, a carrot and a mouse in the clouds.

I also love watching the cycle of each field I drive by on a regular basis. One week it'll be tilled. The next week it'll have rows, then the green sprouts up. It's not always the same crop every year so it's like a mystery and a surprise when I finally figure out what is growing. I don't always figure it out, but I always try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here I tried to capture the glint of water between the furrows near the center. I was also trying to give the impression of a windy spring sky.

The two paintings came out quite different, but I like the effects I got with both. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the oil painting shown here, I wanted to hem in the horizon with a few distant hills to give a sense of how flat the surrounding are really is. The hills put a limit on this vastness. There is also a sense that above the this cloud cover there is a lot going on and you want to peek above it like a shelf you can't quite reach.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;A general skill I'm trying to develop is how to keep my brushstrokes 'alive'. That is to say, when I look closely at paintings done by those who are considered masters, I notice that every brushstroke has several colors in it. It looks casual and somewhat unplanned until you look at the painting from a distance. Then I see that every tiny streak of color is creating a particular effect. This is when I realize the painter really knew what he was doing and it was away to put in tiny details with one brush stroke. The plan was there all along. I am beginning to experiment with that idea and who knows where it will lead? The hard part is getting the paint to blend the right way. Either you get a weird stripe of primary colors or it all mixes up and the paint becomes a dead mud color. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two more points...you might notice there's also some texture to this painting.&lt;br /&gt;And I've posted two photos of "Cloudcover Sunset". The top pic has a lot of glare and the bottom pic emphasizes the transparency of the paint toward the bottom. In reality the look is somewhere between the two.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NFS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="217" width="250"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/yyWK4YLOKUk&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1?color1=0x402061&amp;amp;color2=0x9461ca&amp;amp;border=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/yyWK4YLOKUk&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1?color1=0x402061&amp;amp;color2=0x9461ca&amp;amp;border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="250" height="217"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1718166031317702741-1076262593863513802?l=kristenspaintings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/feeds/1076262593863513802/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/07/cloudcover-sunset-in-oil.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/1076262593863513802'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1718166031317702741/posts/default/1076262593863513802'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristenspaintings.blogspot.com/2010/07/cloudcover-sunset-in-oil.html' title='Cloudcover Sunset in Oil'/><author><name>Kristen's Paintings</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03912255177374923349</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/SyEGBy4y2CI/AAAAAAAAAJM/Z4KiV2ktWWE/S220/indignant.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TEySOAj_NEI/AAAAAAAAAdc/qFELpOyjaa8/s72-c/Cloud+Cover+Sunset+NFS_websize.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718166031317702741.post-5116542675904527274</id><published>2010-07-18T17:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-13T19:54:38.763-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dusk'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Zsolnay'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hungary'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='twilight'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mountain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lanscape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sky'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sunset'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pécs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clouds'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oil'/><title type='text'>Pécs Mountains</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TEOWVfUMWVI/AAAAAAAAAco/EhdvRChRvyw/s1600/sunset+pecs+129_websize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TEOWVfUMWVI/AAAAAAAAAco/EhdvRChRvyw/s320/sunset+pecs+129_websize.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TEOWljV_96I/AAAAAAAAAcw/5HY4W71hBbc/s1600/sunset+pecs+detail+130_websize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nCZ1JwjjxOM/TEOWljV_96I/AAAAAAAAAcw/5HY4W71hBbc/s320/sunset+pecs+detail+130_websize.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;18 X 24&lt;br /&gt;Medium: Oil&lt;br /&gt;Support: Stretched Canvas&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's a little glare in the photo on the mountains, but it highlights some of the more subtle contours. In reality they do not look as pronounced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the hills around Pécs, Hungary at twilight. It's a nice woodsy hike up to the TV tower that gives a great view of the town and the surrounding area. The area around Pecs has some hot springs, caves, spa resorts and an active town center. Summertime has a few festivals too, though I was there in the spring so I have to assume they are a lot of fun too. Here's a &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/111587077992207144667/TheTVTowerAndViewOnTheTown#"&gt;collection of photos&lt;/a&gt; (not taken by me but similar) of the area I'm talking about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pottery lovers: The &lt;a href="http://www.zsolnay.hu/Eng/2index.htm"&gt;Zsolnay factory&lt;/a&gt;

The day I climbed the tower there was a spelunking club practicing their climbs on it.  It’s a tower made mostly of wood and even though it is well maintained and is perfectly safe, you can still see through the slats and listen to it creak as you climb the stairs. The view was great from there and there were signs pointing out towns and castles in the surrounding hills. Fun! On the way up there are some learning stations set up to find out more about the wildlife and the lifestyle of the people who made their living in the mountains. At the foot of the hiking trail is a small town called Szilvasvarad where they train show horses and provides a few services to visitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a scene I painted a showing a lake that is near the trail leading to the peak.
