I just finished moving into my first house!! I'm so excited to finally get back to painting, it's been about a week since I've been able to make art.

I recently came across this wonderful Dorothy Draper quote, “I always put in one controversial item...it makes people talk”. In English designer Rita Konig’s case, she has Sidney, her Hartebeest head peering down at less controversial items. There is a framed poster that says “Love” (no argument there); and a poster that admonishes us to “Drink More Gin” (well regular dosing DID keep the Queen Mum alive to age 101!)...but ‘Sidney’, he raises some issues. Still and all, I love the notion. I personally believe in ‘peace’ globally, nationally, and civically, but around my dining room table I sometimes like to throw a teeny tiny ‘explosive’ just to get the convo started. (My children can be heard groaning, “She HAD to go there???) Soooo you can just imagine my delight when I came across Dorothy Draper’s decorating genius! (P.S. I took the liberty of making Rita Konig’s walls ‘grey poupon’ rather than pale pink). #interiordesign #dorothydraper #ritakonig #english #hartebeest #controversy #love #drinkmoregin #queenmum #peace #windsornewtonpaint #utrectpaint #gamblinpaint #mgrahampaint #dailypaintworks #pamelachoffmeister

Gregory Summers in Essex today! Not quite ready to stand in the rain… #repost rgregorysummers ・・・ A cold rainy day in New England this morning, so the very considerate folks at the Cape Ann Plein Air let us go inside if we wanted... I wanted! Not ready to stand out in the rain and flirt with my health... not yet. I painted a barn within a barn here. Pieces of a historic old barn that will be pieced back together when funds are available.

Earlier this year watercolor_my_life and I decided to do a bobross_thejoyofpainting challenge! We both painted along to "Gray Mountain (Season 24 Episode 1)" (https://youtu.be/4XxClvPZ1RE) I used my m.grahamco gouache on a wood board. So much fun! It was interesting to try to follow his instruction because oil and gouache are so different. Have you ever followed along to a Bob Ross video? I highly recommend it!

Here’s a little red barn, painted from a photo off the highway while we were driving from Louisiana to Texas. When we’re on road trips, I often daydream about the paintings I would make of all the gorgeous landscapes I’m seeing. What colors would I mix? Where would I crop? How would I make the brush marks that would give an impression of the scene? I’m sure my husband wonders why I keep squinting and staring out the window. I’m just painting in my mind, if that’s a thing. And don’t worry, I don’t do this while driving! Barn in Beaumont | 9x6in gouache | painting no. 333/1000 | SOLD

Bolt I was asked to paint a wet dog! That was a first. I was afraid he’d end up looking like he had textured hair more than wet hair, but I think it turned out really well #blacklab #labradorretriever #wetdog #labsofinstagram #lab #blacklablove #mgrahamwatercolors #mgraham #mgrahampaint #ottawadogs #613dogs

From the studio today. Acrylic on primed Masonite.

I couldn’t try gouache without trying out my stroke economy still-life exercise. Which lemon is your favorite? Read on to see more of my gouache takeaways. Lemons in gouache 4x | 11x11 | painting no. 314-317/1000 | Available! When I do this exercise with oil, I have a desire to get the paint down quickly without thinking too much about it. I rely a lot on the paint staying wet, blending adjacent brush strokes, and applying wet on top of wet. It feels a lot different in gouache, though, and I had to adjust my approach. “Wet into wet” doesn’t quite work the same — it either has to be very freshly wet or it has to be fully dry in order for brush strokes to work well (for me anyway). A partially dry mark feels the same to me as partially dry oil paint: tacky! I found that I had more success when I took it slow and let more drying time happen between layers. It helped me better respond to the resulting values once the gouache dried and helped me make clean, fresh and smooth marks. Of course I still had some wet into wet opportunities but I had to make sure that I did those immediately. Another thing I paid close attention to is water to paint ratio. There’s a fine line between too much water and not enough. The only way to figure out what’s right is to get it wrong a bunch of times. If it’s too wet, especially after the first layer, all the paint pools and mixes in a way that I don’t really like. If there’s not enough water, the brush gets stuck and you can’t seem to get the paint on. And then there is a perfect in-between that feels quite nice. I hope this all makes sense and is useful to anyone wanting to try out gouache!

My latest portrait, this one of Jacob, to hang next to the one of me in pink. This is after Portrait of a man in a wide brim hat, possibly by Jan Crossier (Dutch), 1630s, in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in DC. . .
