Unfinished Masterpiece



This is in the Columbus Art Museum, I think I have it labeled as Berthe Moriset. I may have miss labeled it, sorry, but look at how the artist drew out the darks and laid in the detail as she was going through the process of finishing this painting.

This woman in the painting is doing a mundane chore yet the artist wants to tell us some thing of this chore.

In writing people want to read about travel or people doing a job or making a discovery. As it is in art, we as artist we need to tell a story as  well.
Let your art tell a story no matter how simple. Or for that matter complicated.

Notice also the eye stoppers she employs on the right side it is the big curtain and on the left it is the pillows. Thus keeping our eyes traveling inside the painting. Like an old time video game of pong.

Well its time to clean up the studio and get ready to dip my brushes in some paint!

Lets keep 'em wet and paint on.
