Weddings will be coming up for April, May, June, and July, I started a series of Couples, here is the 1st one.  You can see the initial quick drawing, then I decided to add a beach and finally the completed work. I had to take this photo in the dark and make a few adjustments because of the shiny wet paint. I will take/post a better photo once dry in natural light. You can see how it was adjusted as I went along. Just Click Pic to Enlarge

And another sold work

A sold Venice piece

The next work I return to Venice.
My fascination with Venice is unending. Again I wanted to experience the

old buildings with so much character, warped wood, peeling facade, old bricks, and majestic doors and windows. It is very interesting to see how Venice was built, I have included some links for those interested.

The land was created to provide a place for boats to visit.

Fresh Air and Boats An Original Oil Painting by Rebecca Beal on Canvas 

@ rebeccambeal.com

on sale ;)

I recreated a couple of paintings, they are available at rebeccambeal.com And they are on SAle!

I have never posted these completed paintings.
I kept one in my collection, the female readying, the other is posted for its new home.

It is hard to take a photo when a painting is first done. It is so shiny it creates glare.
The first and second pic I have just added the highlights, I am trying out cold wax. I always add the highlights first on this type of painting it keeps all of the colors clear clean and crisp.

I have done so anyway, here is the bartender completed. I will post a better pic when I list it.

I have been doing fairs lately so my painting has slacked off, here is some jewelry I have been making. Really pretty one of a kind and hand knot so they will virtually last forever. Semi-precious stones with amazing properties.

New 12 x 12 inch and 6x6 size

My boredom is subsiding, I found some really happy things to do. I will post them on my Website because Etsy is getting so much in fee's....I can list on the website without paying their commission. So you will be able to get a good price. Here is a sneak peak at some already gone, however I will try tomorrow or the next day to post the ones that are available.
This was my 1st effort, I like the new ones very much.

 

I have gotten somewhat bored and looking for a change of pace, 😊  I painted the waiter on his break, the bartender is next to complete, they are the same size and make a great pair next to a home bar maybe. Then I thought I would try my hand at some abstract work, needing a change of scenery if you will.... possibly incorporate some different techniques into my work, or even branch out to a new me.👍
