Wow, has it ever been a long time since I posted a new painting on here! I have been busy with my new business creating unique furniture pieces and home decor. But I have to say that I have missed painting... badly! There is something in my soul that finds comfort and peace when I paint. So this will not be the last post for awhile. I plan to keep on painting and carve out time for myself to do it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
So I created this piece for someone that is very special to me. She has a heart for bears, black and grizzly.. just loves them. So I finally got around to painting one for her, and went with a really colorful palette! I usually tend to work in Watercolors, but this piece is done in Acrylic. It was built up with layers and layers of paint, until it was juuuust right. ;) My husband told me many times that it was finished, but I tend to be a little bit of a perfectionist {that's an understatement} and I honestly couldn't count how many different colors this bear's face was. Haha! But in the end, I am please with how it turned out. I am looking forward to working with Acrylic more too. It is definitly very different than Watercolor.</div>

I was recently commissioned this piece as a gift to the parents of four daughters. Isn't this the perfect picture? I guess they were the poster couple for a trip or cruise. They couldn't have picked a better looking couple!</div>

I know these are kind of hard to see.. but the drawing has to be light so we won't see it once it's painted! Stay tuned!! And have a great day!</div>

Well hello there strangers! I know it's been way too long since I've posted, but I'm happy to share that I just got a new commission! And I'm SO excited about it! Honestly, it couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've been in what you could call a rut with my painting, and now I feel a little more alive again! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have the honor of painting these two GORGEOUS children, brother and sister! I'll be starting in just a couple of days, so follow along and watch this painting come to life! </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Here is the finished portrait of my daughter Isabella (Bella). I really enjoyed painting her sweet little face. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Good Morning! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday morning! I worked quite a bit on Isabella's portrait last night and got pretty far. I should have her finished this weekend! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Here is my process from last night.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheIFkd32X1ivM5_GzcNFyu9S6hGwtJSbENr8bn4Oj7xxe8lJBEnyn2lJ9KOKz8a6x_01igWARGaPs9WrP8UgagCafAL0-kBzx4WvJq-kF1FU0wRjPY8x5pFiW4vr5jsLGwDnKAZ6TQcZo/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+022.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheIFkd32X1ivM5_GzcNFyu9S6hGwtJSbENr8bn4Oj7xxe8lJBEnyn2lJ9KOKz8a6x_01igWARGaPs9WrP8UgagCafAL0-kBzx4WvJq-kF1FU0wRjPY8x5pFiW4vr5jsLGwDnKAZ6TQcZo/s640/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+022.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Okay, it's all in the eyes right? Here is how I paint eyes in my portraits.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> First I started with a very light wash of Ultramarine Blue. I added super watered down Payne's Grey mixed with Ultramarine Blue. I then mixed up a dark blend of the two colors with Payne's Grey as the dominating color. This is what I used to outline the main part of the iris. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBSIDpX2uo6iJouUAzMnLCmE7SZVUqQcAh_YGOkbVXszpTm9cAB3TovmEDIj6lRcKES1XZXkjI6m_H8SHiUupcH6DzhnMbkiMZ5PKi9DOHsIx91bobCdv2Rk7DOOHfXC8C8fNrkneXYc0/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+023.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBSIDpX2uo6iJouUAzMnLCmE7SZVUqQcAh_YGOkbVXszpTm9cAB3TovmEDIj6lRcKES1XZXkjI6m_H8SHiUupcH6DzhnMbkiMZ5PKi9DOHsIx91bobCdv2Rk7DOOHfXC8C8fNrkneXYc0/s640/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+023.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> Next I added the lashes.. and tiny little pupils.. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-DWHuzOAvE9BqWhAAO7CCixKBzdliwfvujJyQsZZI19BQ-zCkH19HHeJiQxNHX0iG2w9IGmWbrZ2-T46vwPJg7WX2OFYbQRKOx6GdNNwZsAJmmdLqWEFMl8uwQVBdAwodOAOhF7LJtjw/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+024.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-DWHuzOAvE9BqWhAAO7CCixKBzdliwfvujJyQsZZI19BQ-zCkH19HHeJiQxNHX0iG2w9IGmWbrZ2-T46vwPJg7WX2OFYbQRKOx6GdNNwZsAJmmdLqWEFMl8uwQVBdAwodOAOhF7LJtjw/s640/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+024.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I started to layer in her lips and add more detail to her nose..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8zsnOXPYLQorZtQHTRKV8duUcmi84AAaZyzk3UAlosZRXzAaeSDEe7xgbOgTTWIbWih988VwF5e4Ua2Gg5cnhSNcTI4EhqkRVKW-IVCrbe1uL2YUyww0WEnKk88itH3FgfGAidP5Wv6w/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+025.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8zsnOXPYLQorZtQHTRKV8duUcmi84AAaZyzk3UAlosZRXzAaeSDEe7xgbOgTTWIbWih988VwF5e4Ua2Gg5cnhSNcTI4EhqkRVKW-IVCrbe1uL2YUyww0WEnKk88itH3FgfGAidP5Wv6w/s640/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+025.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Now I have gone and darkened shadows and color in her face, as well as her neck. I have also started the hair, using colors and shades of gold tinted with with a hint of violet. I feel like Violet tones done the golden color a bit. I also darkened the arms with another layer.</span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRJ8R9Kfyndm_Ij_Wg_WUvIoyx75Vml_5uQMQ7kmklztEF0R_Wp41H9JIcP4ffkanmiJqDZzOCPYEdYk-FrpReutIHo12X724u5XAlzIFXlD9UBAmc81Na1-nFJlDWcEK8trG0KtxcUgc/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+026.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRJ8R9Kfyndm_Ij_Wg_WUvIoyx75Vml_5uQMQ7kmklztEF0R_Wp41H9JIcP4ffkanmiJqDZzOCPYEdYk-FrpReutIHo12X724u5XAlzIFXlD9UBAmc81Na1-nFJlDWcEK8trG0KtxcUgc/s640/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+026.JPG" width="512" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It's amazing how quickly this portrait starts to come together as soon as you add the eyes. And a mouth and a nose :) :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Have a wonderful day!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I hope you all are having a fabulous start to your Friday! I have had a great morning and I'm all geared up to go full speed ahead with this portrait today! To see the picture and where I started with this click <a href="http://watercolorsbyjentaylor.blogspot.com/2013/02/creative-block-coming-back.html">here.</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Here I am just showing my process of layering.. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc7ryGnmBWN8b6c7y3zNRlK8zlcMiwUW26wYp6HFMduC4CnA4FQVCQ9NY3C9A2buU1LOpMcv-9H6YlwdocT5wKbpOvFgKqavC_nfYFfgk675Av9gb6DwoyHxFR7wEOjxg12UTqNX45ATM/s1600/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc7ryGnmBWN8b6c7y3zNRlK8zlcMiwUW26wYp6HFMduC4CnA4FQVCQ9NY3C9A2buU1LOpMcv-9H6YlwdocT5wKbpOvFgKqavC_nfYFfgk675Av9gb6DwoyHxFR7wEOjxg12UTqNX45ATM/s400/Painting-Bella's+Award+Ceremony+002.JPG" width="276" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">First, I start with my cool pinks (a light wash in Crimson Red) in the face and neck.. Then I quickly move onto my yellows (watered down Cadmium Yellow) to bring out the glowing spots and the warmer toned part of the skin. I let this layer dry, and then proceed to my warm reds, which I love to use (Brilliant Red with a touch of Cadmium Yellow). After this layer is dry, I darken my shadows with wet washes of blue (Ultramarine Blue with a touch of Crimson Red and Burnt Umber). You have to be super careful with this step as the blues really tend to stain the paper and there is little grace when trying to lift it. So be sure that the paper is very wet and workable, and be ready to lift the paint quickly if necessary!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj17UHVwaf8BlIf5hbqgvEe6jmvrq4XuulhUvU0KIWSOJ72-FCT8aTP8xOzusYkpqPEJJS_rpbZzT8YrSpd7seER5vD7-Q7p50Do8HrJchR1NadYbNaoyDrW16H_LnueTQfVpbiAGt1jcc/s1600/Painting-Bella%2527s+Award+Ceremony+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj17UHVwaf8BlIf5hbqgvEe6jmvrq4XuulhUvU0KIWSOJ72-FCT8aTP8xOzusYkpqPEJJS_rpbZzT8YrSpd7seER5vD7-Q7p50Do8HrJchR1NadYbNaoyDrW16H_LnueTQfVpbiAGt1jcc/s400/Painting-Bella%2527s+Award+Ceremony+003.JPG" width="265" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Next I start to layer in the arms. I figure I may as well, since I'm already working with these same colors for the face and neck. As you can see, I tend to start with brighter colors. I do it this way because it is really easy to muddy a watercolor and once it happens, there's not too much you can do to brighten it back up. So starting with the bright colors will allow me to go back later and soften once I've had time to really look at it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Here, you will notice that I have done a few things to the background. I really love a neat textured background but still blurred as you would see in a nice photograph.. So I simply swirl my wet paint brush in a small circular motion to form these glowing blurred dots. I then can add a brighter yellow, or green to make that background pop again! Kind of a fun technique :)</span><br />
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I will post some more tips and techniques later today as work on her.</span></span></div>

Hello Friends!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would love to first off say thank you for friendship and all your lovely comments! I really enjoy the encouragement you give to me and also any helpful suggestions when needed. Lately I've found myself in a creative slump to put it nicely. I just get so down when this happens because it just feels so unnatural. I believe that I was born to be creative! Born to draw! Born to paint! That's the spirit! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here's to breaking the dam that has kept and contained any creative thoughts, brush strokes, and frankly anything enjoyable locked away in a gloomy lake! I could knock it down piece by piece, but I think I'm taking some dynamite to it! Get it all in one sweep! Let the creative river flow and flood my brain to the point of utter exhaustion from too many ideas!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
LOL! Okay, you're probably all thinking.. this chic has LOST it! I haven't.. I promise! Just got a little carried away there. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is one piece that has been interfering with my creative flow. I started out really loving this piece, and don't get me wrong, I still do. But I've been staring at this unfinished piece for over a year now. I know what you must be thinking.. "Then just get it done!" Well, easier said than done. And all you artists out there know what I'm talking about. I am so close to being finished with this one, but I'm not making any promises this time, sense that seems to put too much pressure on me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
So to every problem you find a solution right? So here is my solution. I LOVE painting portraits, particularly my little girls :) So I've started a second portrait of my nine year old daughter Isabella. I took this photograph last spring, and have been dieing to paint it ever since!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did make a change to this portrait. There was just something about the way her hand was cut off in the photo, so I laid her arm across her lap instead.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am expecting to move quickly through this one, so stay tuned! </div>

Have a wonderful Thursday!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is an illustration of an airway blocked by the tongue falling to the back of the throat. The air comes through the nasal cavity and is stopped by the blockage, forcing it to head right back out. This keeps you from getting a full breath of much needed air. There is my health tip of the day! :-) This painting still needs some tweaking however.. So stay tuned!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey Friends! I have been so busy with the holidays and my baby girl, well, not so much a baby anymore just turned NINE!! Such a milestone for me.. I honestly don't know where the years have flown to. We have had a wonderful nine years, and I so look forward to the next nine! That said, I have had zero time to paint and post! So please excuse my long absence :) I promise 2013 has so much coming!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a project I'm starting this next week. I have been commissioned to draw/paint 6 small medical illustrations. So get ready to see me out of my comfort zone... I am excited to start these!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also plan to paint some western, wildlife, and maybe (MAYBE) some Native American paintings. I do live in the Northwest after all :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, to finish off my post, I thought I would just share all of the portraits I painted over 2012. Mostly people, some animals. </div>

<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I just started this self portait sketch.. I have never done pencil portraits, so I am kind of excited to see how I like it! I am always just blown away by a fellow artist/friend, Michael Silverstone, and thought I would play with it a little! Another update to follow soon! Thank you!</span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394;">I have been so swamped with commissions (not that I'm complaining!!), so I haven't had the time to work on this one. A few days of dedication should wrap this one up!</span></div>
