Painting large



Hello Beautiful People!
Here in Canada this last weekend was Thanksgiving. I had a lovely time and cooked a nice meal. Opie and Lily enjoyed some turkey :)

I also had time to create this large portrait painting. I really enjoy painting large. It is so much more physical than the smaller works I do. You really have to stretch your arm when painting big. Plus I use different brushes, I find I can get a softer look on the larger paintings because of the bigger brushes. It allows for more room to push the paint around :)

Portrait with kitty and bird is up for auction on Ebay.

Hugs to all!

  1. I really like the warm, autumn colors you chose. Thanks for the insight on painting on a large canvas. Maybe one day I will be brave enough. Happy Holidays!

  2. A real sweet tweet! I have been thinking about making a large painting lately...and a very small one,too. Thinl I'll start small and work my way up.
    Happy belated turkey day.

  4. We can really tell you're painting in a larger scale, it's softer and different from your other paintings and you can add more detail to it...but personally i really enjoy the smaller ones!

    Nice painting ♥
