‘Woman in Front of Mirror’: After struggling on a painting dominated by red, this was me bursting out from that constraint to exhilarating color.

After working on my self-portrait this morning, I’ve decided it’s finished...or at least taken as far as I can with my current capabilities as an artist. When I compare it to a self-portrait I painted in 2017, I’m amazed at my progress in draftsmanship.©️Stark 2021
Incredibly dynamic poses that inspired this painting. I wanted to capture motion and emotion in this piece. ©️Stark 2021
Still life study of my foot 🦶. Both in color and black/white. 😂

Explored more expressive brush strokes and paint quality with this lovely intimate pose.

Exploring different pathways to abstraction... ‘5’ and ‘Holy’ were created from a place of pure response and intuition.

Under drawing for a painting this morning. I got a little carried away with my colors pencils 😊. Love the shape created by the model’s hair. ©️Stark 2020
Fun morning at the easel working on the textures and colors in the hair. Focused on paint mark variety using different brushes and a few squeegee tools 😊. Trying to put some abstraction into the realism. ‘Introspection’ 18x18 ©️Stark 2020
‘Arthropods’ Latest painting. Focused on color relationships and shapes... ©️Stark 2020 #oilpainting #figurativepainting
‘Queen Gazelle’ Took the opportunity to explore the organic shapes of my brushstrokes and how they form the bigger shapes in this composition. Oh, and colors and light 💡!😊 ©️Stark 2020
