New Work -- Artichoke

I started a new painting today.  This is the sketch-in based on a photograph I took at the Desert Botanical Gardens.  With the basic value structure established, I can begin laying in some color.

The Best & the Brightest
Opening Reception

What a delight!  I attended the Opening Reception for the new juried show The Best & the Brightest at Scottsdale Artist School.  It is a very strong show.  If you haven't seen it yet, plan to stop by. It doesn't close until February 27. 

Upon arrival I saw that my entry "Cactus Flowers" was sold.  I'm grateful to the art patron who found a place in her/his home for my painting.  You can view more of my work at my website, http://www.annhoviswallace.com .

Work in Progress
Well, after being sidetracked by the holidays, I'm back in the studio and finishing up this painting.  With a few tweaks, it may be completed.  I'm going to study the balance of values and color and make some final adjustments.
