“Walrus in Blue”
6 x 9 inches, oil on canvas paper
I’m working on my colors this week – specifically my color harmony. Here’s a monochromatic painting of a mother and baby walrus. Here’s the closest thing to a monochromatic painting I’ve done before this, besides my abstract paintings.
By the way, I used Carol Marine’s suggestion of soaking my caked up paint brushes (which I had all but given up on) in Murphey’s Oil Soap overnight, and it worked well! Thanks Carol!
My painting arrived today and it is even better than I had hoped for! I love the way you mounted it in an offset shadow box frame~~ It sets off the painting perfectly!!
Thank you for packaging it so carefully as well. I want everyone to know that when you buy a painting from Jessie, you get the royal treatment!
Thank you again, I am so in love with your work.
Her style is representational and impressionistic and her subjects range from landscapes to figurative to still-life. She likes to illustrate an image or emotion with patterns and gestures, many brush strokes that add up to a finished piece. When you step close to one of her paintings, you can see deliberate strokes of color, and when you step back, the colors blend and become whole, encompassing a viewer with a moment of beauty.
