On to the Next

Here I am creating a new oil painting from a photo someone gave me from decades ago.  Actually I think it was before I was born.  I don't know the location or the people in it.  I have flipped it to do the painting from the opposite side.  It is sort of comforting to realize that in a couple of years I will have another oil painting dried and ready to show.  Hopefully I will find a good show for it.  The art market of the state seems concentrated on plein air paintings, which I haven't done in several years.  I do not like painting along in a group, I prefer painting alone, then showing in groups or solo.  It will be realism, this oil painting.  Perhaps it will find favor with the public.
