Art from week 7/4/2013
 Hi Blog readers I am about to share the art from this week. Not as much has been done as I had hoped but anyway isn't it always the way? My first piece is a seascape and here it is

                                        A walk on the beach by Carolyn Boddy
SOLD
I thought I'd do another beach scene as the last one was popular and was sold and posted to California in America. There is more of a rolling wave and sunset sky in this one. I really enjoyed trying to get the sea right and as always I enjoyed adding the people and animals.
 


Leon Park 3 by Carolyn Boddy sold
 This one is inspired by the sunny weather this week and a football game in the park near my house. I have added daffodils for some spring cheer and painted a blue sky as I am tired of snow and cold weather. At least in my paintings I can change the weather. I my self have been quite under the weather this week and spent a couple of days in bed with flue so only two paintings to share. I have one more nearly done, which Intend to take to a gallery and I have picked up a commissioned painting too which is delightful. I received a nice email from someone who had brought my work as a gift for a relative and  that had been gladly received and that is lovely! So all is going quite well with the painting.  Darryl has been busy too and here is his work!
Nice car lad, by Darryl Boddy sold
 
I'm loving the car as I have a real pasion for classic cars.
Also  here is another
Mending the pot holes by Darryl Boddy sold
 
I love the blue roofs and the atmospheric feel of this painting.
So if you like our work this week do feel free to follow the links to buy.
 
As you know I also like to share the work of another artist with you and this week I shall just mention the work of Roy Lichtenstein who's work you can look out for at the Tate Modern until the 27th of May. He looked to comic books for inspiration and here is a sample of his work which I really like!
 He used screen tone dots to do his shading. He would also take single frames from comic books and project them onto canvases and paint them in colour.
Look out next week for more of our work and thanks for reading the blog!
