The beginnings of a few paintings from today. Raw umber in sketchbook. Painting in a sketchbook definitely puts me in a more contemplative 🤔 mode.©️Stark 2019 #oilpainting #paintingsketchbook
Fun morning finishing off this color study in oil. Love playing with colorful object hit by dappled light. 5”x7” ☺️ ©️Stark 2019 #stilllife #colorstudy #oilpainting #allaprima #wetonwet #foodpainting
Underpaintings completed today in a process workshop @seattleartistleague Loving the approach of building a painting from abstract beginnings. ©️Stark 2019 #oilpainting #abstractpainting
Last evening, I let my brain rest for a few hours and tried to capture my emotions on canvas. ‘David’ - oil on gesso panel 12x16 ©️Stark 2019 #allaprima #portraitpainting #contemporarypainting #livemodel #oilportrait
Spent morning working on this painting again in a live model session in Oakland. Enjoyed the challenge of editing and evolving the work from last session. And of course, the pose can’t be beat! ☺️©️Stark 2019 #figurativepainting #fromlife #paintingfromlife
Fun alla prima session this morning in Oakland. Really interesting reclining pose with a lot of twists and turns. #allaprima #figurativepainting #recliningnude #oilpainting #wetonwet ©️Stark 2019
Disappeared last night to play with paint. She had a tilted gaze that would change during the session, like a seesaw. Good challenge in getting in the structure first and then laying in the paint to capture the mood. Swipe for close up. Oil on gesso panel 12”x16”©️Stark 2019
Detail shot from painting session last night. Will post painting once I’m able to get a decent pic of it. Loved playing with more subtle colors in her skin...and you will see why ☺️©️Stark 2019 #allaprima #portraitpainting #contemporarypainting #livemodel #oilportrait
‘Signe’ alla prima painting from today. Wanted to really have the form fill the canvas... also wanted to push the colors of the flesh. ©️Stark 2019 #figurativepainting #oilpainting #allaprima #wetonwet #livemodel #colorstudy
