Always itching to get back to creating art. Anyway. An amazing painting. Just beautiful.dkvisionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15502088584914337089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-3244371481821077122013-11-23T22:03:09.708-05:002013-11-23T22:03:09.708-05:00Wow!

I recognized it immediately when I came across it on your blog. I was born and raised in charleston and my grandmother painted charleston landscapes so I was lucky enough to watch her my entire life. I just came across your blog and I am really enjoying it! Now I really want to go home and paint some landscapes!<br />Kim Baxley<br />Www.baxleydesigns.comdkvisionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15502088584914337089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-28835454272489056462010-03-10T14:28:50.420-05:002010-03-10T14:28:50.420-05:00I'm surprised you only just met Marc Delessio!...I'm surprised you only just met Marc Delessio!

Just a little bit, which is making some colors look a little more greyish than I believe they really are. <br /><br />Love the painting.Marcelohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03853718238349270412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-91853195681323140592010-03-06T23:11:34.195-05:002010-03-06T23:11:34.195-05:00Thanks, Stape for the great info on traveling.

I had some little cardboard "corners" I thought of using to separate wet panels, but I'll check the hardware store for something smaller. <br />This was really helpful.<br /><br />And, it goese without saying, beautiful painting. Love it.

I'm not sure what Marcelo means about the colors. I hope that they are true here. Love those colors.<br /><br />Jeremy, I use gouache but not for painting landscapes or travel. I use it to work out preliminary small color studies when I am working on a still life design. (It's like a tempera/poster paint). The colors are wonderful. For me it's a medium in and of itself, drying quickly and constantly needing water. I don't think it's for sketching but maybe someone who paints with water color can handle it more quickly than me.mariandioguardi.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963944767715466681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-64561970677308100172010-03-06T14:54:06.095-05:002010-03-06T14:54:06.095-05:00Super practical advice here - I will have to remem...Super practical advice here - I will have to remember this when I have the chance to do a long painting trip.<br /><br />Have you ever tried painting in gouache when traveling? I have never used it, but a lot of oil painters seem to be happy using it when traveling since it is opaque and water soluble. Although, maybe they are using for more of a sketch while you are creating finished works for sale...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17579185594957855023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-20040767469696405172010-03-06T12:44:36.351-05:002010-03-06T12:44:36.351-05:00Stapleton, I really like your paintings you have p...Stapleton, I really like your paintings you have posted the last few days. <br /><br />I am looking forward to the workshop in Rolling Fork, and It sounds like you have it down to fine detail on packing your "stuff" for plane travel.<br /><br />I have taken to my bed the last few days.
