Painting Series this week: Details
One of the drawbacks as well as the benefits of daily painting is that people send you emails filled with suggestions that are actually veiled criticism. I will not go down the list as it is boring and mostly made up of people who are actually more dissatisfied with their own life than what I do.

| First of the Eyes Have it Paintings |
But every once in a while you get one of those emails and you wonder if they ever really looked at your work. Then I realized the problem. Part of painting daily is painting small. Usually 8 by 10 or less. So details are going to be fuzzy sometimes at that size. Although I do try to put detail in when at all possible. Today though I decided to begin work on a few close ups, so people can see the detail.
Friday's Painting is the first of a series I will be carrying through to until June 5th. I call it Details. I'm going to do a little practice on the details of the horses from some of the photographers that have given me larger images to work from.
This First painting is "Cueca" in close up with her bridle on. The Photo reference is provided by Cecilia Steel. The painting is called " Her Working Eyes.
