Maryann Lucas: October 2014

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Friday, October 31, 2014. Light Through Old Bottles. I have a great collection of old bottles for my still life arrangements. Some I purchased on eBay, others I bought at yard sales and a few I dug up in my own backyard. Yup. I live in Sag Harbor, NY which was established in the early 1700s. Buried household trash from over 300 years ago is buried treasure for me! Links to this post. Labels: 16x20 oil on gessobord. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Maryann Lucas: March 2014

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Saturday, March 1, 2014. I did not know that oil paints can freeze. I found out making this painting! Must say, I never felt more alive than when I was outside, standing on frozen snow with temperatures in the teens, chasing the greys and waning light on this February day. Links to this post.

Maryann Lucas: Set for Spring

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2015/04/set-for-spring.html

In this beauty of a painting I really like the definition of the water jug against the dark, and the tulips leaning towards it. Have you seen John Singer Sargents The Breakfast Table?

Maryann Lucas: May 2015

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Pitchers on White Linen. Believe it or not, this is the first time I ever painted linen. I was told by one of my mentors, that linen reflects light much more beautifully than other material. In truth, I was doubtful but I am teachable. So the next time I was at an antique store, I picked up some old linen napkins. Guess what? Links to this post. Labels: 12x12 oil on canvas. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Maryann Lucas: Lilacs in Blue

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2015/07/lilacs-in-blue.html

Tuesday, July 7, 2015. I was hesitant to paint these lilacs in this vase because of its turquoise handle and rim. Wasn't sure if the color turquoise would fight the lavender tones of the flowers. Actually, I knew in my gut it was a great color combination, but wondered if I could execute it effectively. Glad I trusted my gut and my abilities because I'm quite satisfied by the outcome.

Maryann Lucas: January 2015

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Monday, January 26, 2015. This is a little study of the knife and fork I ultimately placed in the painting, 'Pottery and Silver' posted last week. I don't paint silverware very often and find it a bit daunting. Figuring a little practice might help, I put the bigger painting, 'Pottery and Silver,' on "hold" while I made this little study. It holds true again, "practice makes perfect" - or at least less imperfect! Links to this post. Labels: 8 x 8 in oil on gessobord. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Please se...

Maryann Lucas: November 2014

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Sunday, November 30, 2014. The inspiration for this painting started with the white metal pot. Love it. Found it at a dilapidated antique shop on the north fork of Long Island and couldn't wait to get it into a still life painting. Getting the different textures - the sheen on the pot, the dusty skin of the potatoes, crispiness of the carrots and so on, was the ultimate challenge here. Links to this post.

Maryann Lucas: Potato Leek Soup

http://oilpaintingsmaryannlucas.blogspot.com/2015/03/potato-leek-soup.html

Saturday, March 21, 2015. Labels: 30x26 oil on canvas. July 11, 2015 at 9:58 PM. I grinned reading your words - trying to complicate my composition. I understand the challenge. I feel you were very successful and the lighting reminds me of a dutch master painting. This is superb. August 7, 2015 at 7:04 PM. I admire all your work, Maryann, but this is a real bravura piece. Its stunning. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Mugs, Posters Note Cards with my Artwork.
