New painting in progress in my studio - Large 48 x 24 by Karen Fields



Ok! While I am taking a break in my studio, I want to show you what I go through to accomplish my paintings. I have to go through a lot of layers of thought, paint and theory to get to where I want to be with my abstract paintings. This one is 48 x 24 inches and I love it because I can really create a landscape that has a lot of different foliage and plants in it. I love the water, so I always seem to include some kind of water in my art. It just makes me happy.

So, here, I am in the very early stages of blocking in some ideas of what I want to do. I paint rough shapes and colors to kind of map out my preliminary composition. I'll continue through the weekend working on this one. I need to let it sit so I can think and observe it. Fresh eyes make for the best painting days. Thanks for looking!
