Update to the ominous painting from the dream.

Mom

Just began the portrait of my late mother, Ruth Ellen Cormier the other day. Sitting as she typically would, reading the paper at our old house in North Springfield, Virginia.

This scene has long been a subject for me. This beach from nowhere with a child's sandcastle. Soon the dark anthropomorphic monoliths will visit.

First painting ever with water mixable oils to prevent toxicity. Windsor & Newton. They are indeed as lush and buttery as claimed, however a lot more tack to them as well. They are way better than acrylics, no comparison really, maybe in terms of fast drying which they are and makes it easier to paint layers. Using a water mixable medium sub for linseed oil and water to clean the brushes. I notice the medium does not mix directly with water though.
