A Painting Day - Valley Fog - Ruth Andre



"Valley Fog"
12.25"x4" Oil and Cold Wax on Arches Paper
By Ruth Andre
$250.00

I have been enchanted with the color grey for ages and have wanted to paint with grey so finally I have started the journey. Yesterday I posted, "Morning Fog" for the Challenge 100 Paintings using shades of grey. Today I have painted a slightly bigger painting in hopes of finding my way to a much larger painting surface be it paper or canvas. It is a process to make changes and with the painting above, "Valley Fog" you can see several thin paint applications that appear to be wisps of color showing the over and under painted layers. I also am showing the painting vertically and horizontally since I am not sure of the direction for this painting. I believe it works both ways and would make a quiet statement to any room interior. It has been, "A Painting Day".

Fog In The Morning - Ruth Andre


"Fog In the Morning"
8"x11" oil on panel 
by Ruth Andre
$175.00

The morning was filled with a lingering fog as I looked out over the ocean's coastal buttes. The color of the distant mountains were muted. by the fog. They had a sleepy look like they were not ready for the day to begin. It was not only, "A Painting Day" it was a day filled with surprises as the seals swam by playing in the waves.
