« Etude #2: Creekside | Main | The Divine Proportion »
Etude #3 Westcliffe Barns
by Keith Bond on 10/30/2009 3:31:43 PM



This is the third painting in the Painted Etude Series.


"Westcliffe Barns" (Etude #3), by Keith Bond, 4 x 5, oil on board, $150

This painting was an exercise in seeing abstract shapes and colors.  To avoid being caught up in the 'things', I turned a photo upside down and just began paing the shapes as I saw them.  This is one of my favorite exercises to do.  I was delighted with the results when the painting was turned right side up.
