Click on photo to enlarge (twitpic). See my pencil sketch in my previous post. This little painting evolved from drawings that I have been doing for months in my sketchbook. The Art of Amy Crehore I'm painting this for the Sea No Evil 2011 Benefit Art Auction, Riverside Municipal Auditorium, CA. June 25, 2011, 6 PM.
I made this sketch last night called "Blue Whale Cove". I'm going to try painting on a piece of wood this time. I already have a unique gold frame and I cut the wood to fit it. The frame will determine the direction of the color scheme this time, as I want it to become part of "the whole".

Someone told me that they really liked my preliminary drawings, so I thought I would show you the two pencil drawings that I did for my new paintings. "A Little Escapade" totally morphed into something different when I painted it. Also, here are some quick digital shots of how these paintings looked framed before I shipped them off to the NEW BROW IV show in Seaside, CA. (Opens Friday May 13, 2011) More info about this show in a previous post.
