100 PORTRAITS IN 100 DAYS - Dodge, 32/100, © Carol Nelson Fine Art

Day 32

Dodge is a fellow I "met" on Facebook. This is one of his profile pictures and I could immediately see that it would make an interesting portrait. I love all the green in the photo - the wild colors were already there for me - no racking my brain to come up with wild colors.
For purchase information, please see my website, or email me at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net.

AND THE WINNER IS: JEFF, 25/100. Jeff's portrait was the favorite in the last group of ten.
I'm curious about the past three winners - they've all been guys wearing glasses. I've painted some beautiful women, adorable children, but viewers are going for guys with glasses. If this continues, looks like today's painting of Dodge has a good chance.
Thanks to all who sent me their vote. I think this is so fun!!!

Once in a Blue Moon by Kay Wyne

Once In A Blue Moon
16" x 20" Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Oil Painting
Once in a Blue Moon ... a phrase that we have all heard. This was a topic of conversation in the Wyne house lately....it is a common way of saying not very often, but what exactly is a Blue Moon? It is the second Full Moon to occur in a single calendar month. That occured last December, when we had a Full Moon on the 2nd and the 31st. According to the experts, there will be 41 months that have two Full Moons in every century, so you could say that once in a Blue Moon actually means once every two-and-a-half years.
Once in a Blue Moon is also a title for lyrics to songs....like the Van Morrison song....
When I started the above painting, I had a collage look going, starting with the words, Once in a Blue Moon painted on the canvas several times in different font/colors/sizes. If you look closely you can see them under the layers of paint. You can also see two images of horses, geometric figures and layers of paint along with oil crayons. There is alot of movement in the painting and the eye jumps from one shape to the next shape. This contemporary abstrct oil painting is now signed and completed after weeks on the easel. It is on a gallery wrap canvas, so no frame is needed. Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing. Thanks for viewing this blog!

100 PORTRAITS IN 100 DAYS - Milvi,30/100, © Carol Nelson Fine Art

Day 30

Today's portrait is one of a pair of sisters, Milvi and Inga, who said they spent an afternoon having a photo shoot to get photos to send to me. They said even if I don't choose to paint them, they had a lot of fun doing their photo session.
They did a great job of setting up the lighting for their photo shoot. Notice the strong single light source on one side. When I first painted Milvi, I had her all in blue and purple. She looked like an extra out of Avatar. I decided to tone down the blue to a somewhat more believable color, but you can still see some blue here and there.
I had fun with her glasses too. They're kind of there and not there. For purchase information, please see my website or email me at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

TIME TO VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE IN THE THIRD GROUP OF TEN!!!!!!!!!!!
Please review Portraits 21 (Regula) through 30 (Milvi) and email me with your favorite.
