"Thinking on the stairs" oil and charcoal on linen by Kerry Steele
Last week, the mood struck to do another figural piece. I chose linen and began in several pastel colors. It quickly began to resemble one of my blue and white pieces on linen with the pastel colors standing-in for the white.I have a 48 x 48 canvas with an indentation on the top stretcher bar, nothing huge but I felt wrong to sell it so I painted something for myself. It is another painting that defies photography and won't show all of the subtleties in color. Instagram filters seemed to be my only help.
I also am trying to do a few smaller canvases.
I picked up two 5 x 7 canvases and decided to give it a whirl. The one on the left sold very quickly so I think I need to do more.
