I like horses and here is a painting of a pair.  Enjoy!

A study in aerial perspective 8″x8″. Oil on linen.  This was a good study in depth.  I could have gone more blue with the farthest mountains, but it seemed to work this way also.  So I left it this way.

I took a little more time than usual on this landscape and I was in the zone when painting this one, loved creating this one.  (The reference photo is from pinterest).  Enjoy!

Here is another beauty in Pink.  Enjoy!

Here are a couple of landscapes from a series I did this week.  So, I am going through a cycle of a series of landscape, still life and portrait,  Doing them in a bunch is a good way to hone ones skill.

Now that I have tortured you with my painting of the chocolates.  I will do the next hard job of eating them :).   Who does not like Lindt Chocolates?!  Enjoy!

It is good that the cold temperature in the garage-studio keeps the fruits fresh.  However I threw away the strawberries and the Cranberry Juice (Sorry not Red Wine), it is too risky to eat perishable items.   I don’t like throwing away food, that is why I don’t paint fruits as often, as I should.   Nothing much to say in this setup.  This is a study in Red, Green and muted blue.

I will be posting a Video of the making of this Art shortly on instagram @artistfaisal

This was a still life I set in my Garage-Studio.  It was very cold today, therefore, the sliced orange stayed fresh, but I had to run the space heater to stay toasty.  As you can see I am playing the Blue colored surrounding, with the Orange and Yellow objects (contrast).  The Blue is subdued while the Orange and Yellow Chroma is intense.  Also, I set up the composition into a triangular format, with the bottom left corner of the painting as the apex of the triangle and the objects growing in size as your eyes travel to the top right corner (sort of)  Enjoy!

Here is a blue eyed beauty… Enjoy!

I have established a workflow for making portraits and that helps a lot.  Carving features out of big structures also helps with likeness.  Photographs of paintings sometimes are not true to the original.  Thanks for visiting.  Enjoy!
