Back to the beginnings.....
Just when I thought I was getting pretty good at watercolor I decided to change to oils. I am quite spontaneous that way.
Although I love watercolors, I am not completely comfortable with the medium. It is very challenging to use it the way I paint... very fast, heavy painting, over and over... not good with watercolor.
So I thought I should go back to oils to see how it works for me now many years later. It seems I can work with it quite well. I am much more comfortable applying color, changing it, doing it again... etc.
This is the result of my first oil painting after many, many years.

I always find it difficult to photograph paintings, it looses the softness and intensifies the detail and color, but this is close.
I hope you enjoy it.. thanks for visiting!
