I have my little Guerilla Thumbox and my Alla Prima Bitteroot boxes. Both are great for acrylics or oils but were lacking ...

  10 x10 pastel on BFK So call me a whimp. 45 mile an hour winds were making my little Honda Fit dance over the road. The winds rocked the car when I parked. Thats when I decided to paint "en plein car." On my way to the location I thought about the marks a pastelist makes are like the brushmarks  of an oil ...

  10x12 pastel on BFK This morning as I drove to the lake I was obsessing over the use of  chaotic marks in warm and cool colors, layered. I could see it all. Then I saw the lake-wow!!!!!! The thinking was over when the first pastel hit the paper. It was really one of those intuitive paintings.  The pastel was my ...

• influences and a piece of advice

  
  loriann signori's painting-a-day — Authority: 128
  5x12 pastel on BFK  and its grisaille Hans Hoffman was one of Wolf Kahns teachers. The exploration of color was the main focus of their work(from my understanding.) It is mine as well. For me its about simultaneous contrast, how relationships of colors next to each other effect the two colors and the whole. Hoffman ...

  loriann signori's painting-a-day — Authority: 128
  This is a studio piece that I have been working on from a plein air painting in November. Letting the idea sit and take shape in your head is very helpful. All the while I am thinking of Hans Hoffmans push pull theory. Warm /cool. I want a softness to the air. Still it needs a vibration. Hmmmmmmmm. On another ...

My style has been changing for a few months now, and this painting marks a pivotal stage in that change. It is a slower way of painting with several ...
