Candle inspired by Gerhard Richter

Oil on canvas - 18" x 24"

I am fascinated by Gerhard Richter; I had to try (somewhat naively) to approach one of his many wonderful paintings. He has painted several "candles" - so masterfully. I did try my best, only to realize I was still miles away. I have only used two colors: Cadmium Yellow Pale and Cobalt Blue (and a tad of Transparent Oxyde Red).

Again another still life based on a series of pictures ...

Still Life with Pears

These pears inspired me. They are quite a stretch from the so called inspiration. The original photograph follows.

Still Life with Peaches

 

Oil on Canvas 10" x 8"

I thought I would have a hard with the peaches. Wrong I was. I had to paint the silver cup 12 (twelve) times...too bright, too white, too small, too big ... too too too ...

Jane at Quiberon.

Jane at Quibéron - Oil on Canvas - 20" x 16"

We spent a few days in Brittany. Jane was fascinated by the beauty of the sea. The picture I took (see below) turned later into the above oil painting. We have added more pictures to show you the original model photograph and a few of the steps leading to the final painting.
