The Collector
medium: Watercolor and Acrylic
size: 3.75 x 5 inches



This painting was accepted to the Minneapolis Institute of Art's Foot in the Door 4 exhibit and should be on display Feb 19 to June 13 2010. It's a great opportunity for art style that might never be considered for a museum show. I remember seeing the last show 10 years ago when I was a student. There were all kinds of interesting works.

painting grass

For other painters out there. You may have to be certifiably nuts want to try it, but there's a couple nice write ups on how to paint grass like John-Howe,

John's explaination, and a nice visual tutorial someone made from it.

I get the urge to do it every once in awhile. I do not really follow the tutorial since I hate masking fluid. It's fun and aggravating at the same time, but really satisfying when done right. This time it's not a commission, but the grass is the most complicated thing in the picture.
