THE CLIFF

oil on Yupo, 6x8
in, 15x20cm
I painted this one yesterday, after Henri Edmond Cross, with his pointillist manner.
Yupo paper is quite new for me.
  I read about it last year. Apparently, it was an odd support: you could mix  water and dishwashing  liquid and get nice effects in  watercolour;
so, I bought it for gouache,but was not pleased with the result. I suppose I am not fond of impredicable things
This month, I tried again with oils, deciding to cover the surface with a layer of black acrylic,let it drying, and then paint.
it gives a smooth surface, easy to work with.; I will use it now, starting with small pieces (1/2 sheet, e.i. 6x7in).

I am fagged...

C LEMENTINE

I painted this clementine for the VSD January's challenge,but I was not sure it would be on time;(thank you, Jeannette to haved posted it at the last time)

We just have had a big tempest here, with a fierce wind and rain,so we didn't have electricity nor telephone for 2 -days.Luckily, it is finished now.
