Beautiful, Juliana. Bill Furst in NM likes to do thumbnails anymore as well. Your work is amazing!
Very expressionistic – historically speaking. Wonderful piece.
Just love the colors. love you too!
Your stream provided a great 2 minute study break – just soaking in the colors and texture helped me rejuvenate and push forward! xo Jo
Lovely but no orange?
Beautiful. What qualifies as a thumbnail?
A thumbnail is a tiny sketch, so called because it is typically about the size of an actual adult thumb’s nail. Thumbnails, in the context of art, are rapidly executed near-doodles, and serve to get the creative flow flowing. They are preliminary designs. Wait, strike that. A thumbnail would fall into the category of a pre-preliminary design, if such a category existed.
I think of thumbnails as about the size of a postage stamp, this is actually more of a color study…4×6 which is small but not technically a thumbnail. I approach the process of making these little studies differently: more about shapes and color than making a finished painting. I almost never spend more than 15 min.
thanks for the lesson, Julie… I needed it!
Juliana, I love how you saw the light, colors, and shadows. End of the day? Beautiful.
