some good painting stuff




here are three paintings for my friend christal in atlanta ga to look at
i have been having problems with my website uploading new product and i am really thinking about closing out the website and just using the blog.
sometimes this internet stuff just wears me out..

Thursday, September 27, 2012

hi guys,   no painting for me this friday  have too much to do.
i now have a new e mail address due to all the problems i had with suddenlink so i will be the next few days changing everything that has the old address on it.
new e mail is_" arttyndallstudio@gmail.com"



this is the old haunted house just east of chocowinity on patrick road.   i started this painting sitting on my tailgate and finished it in the studio.  i think most plein air paintings are done about the same way.   after it sits around a few days then you can see what needs to be
done to finish...........if a painting is ever finished...i wonder.

you guys go out and have fun tomorrow......

hi guys,  did this little painting while i was at the car show in pigeon forge tenn.  then i came back to the studio and did it all over again, sometimes you have got to wait for the paint to dry to  get a really good look at it....it worked...it is now sold.
    had a really good time in new bern this past saturday for national paint out there were about 15 painters there.
    this friday lets all get together at the esturium and the festival park here in washington and do some great plein air painting, i will be there about 9;00....i did this last week and no one showed up except for linda boyer [ check out my last post in this blog]
  should be a nice day according to the news.




  this little painting was done last year
    on west second st.

     see you friday
