Oil Painting ############## | Elizabeth Reoch

Oil Painting ############## – Elizabeth Reoch’s Original Oil paintings My Oil Painting ############## holds some of my favorite oil paintings. I have painted more paintings then I can count. Some are treasures that I place on my own walls and some are in the homes of other people, while others are stuck in storage because I can’t let them go since they hold sentimental and emotional value. I was always naturally observing the different textures within landscapes and the designs the shadows would <a href="http://www.toryburchsshop.com/tory-burch-flats-c-6.html"><strong>Tory Burch Flats</strong></a> make on the walls, but I wanted to become a painter when I watched my <a href="http://www.toryburchsshop.com/tory-burch-wedge-flipflops-c-11.html"><strong>Tory Burch Wedge Flip-flops</strong></a> grandmother paint landscape paintings from post card pictures. She was a self taught painter and painted for her own pleasure and the pleasure of her family. It was through her that I saw the magic of oil painting and believed that I could communicate my thoughts and feeling with art. I picked up my grandmother’s oil paints that had been left untouched since her death, and started to explore with her paints. I was frustrated at first because I had no idea how to paint so I determinedly taught myself most of what I know about how to paint with oils by replicating Renoir and Monet’s master paintings. I copied their brush work and mixed colours until my colours <a href="http://www.toryburchsshop.com/"><strong>tory burch outlet</strong></a> matched the reds and blues of the impressionists but was lacking in an understanding of how to put together a composition and how to define perspective. I later learned all the technical and professional painting techniques in College and University but I know I learned to paint by exploring with my grandmother’s oil paints and intently observing the works of master painters. &nbsp; Oil Painting ############## – First Showing These paintings in the oil painting ############## were done for my own interest and pleasure and have not been previously published. They are my own original oil paintings <a href="http://www.ciaa.cn/plus/guestbook.php"><strong>Oil Painting ############## | Elizabeth Reoch</strong></a> with personal and emotional value. I spent quite a few years in love with the idea of painting on raw wood, letting the wood grain be a part of the painting showing through in select areas of my painting. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Categories: OIl Paintings | Tags: figurative oil, oil painting ##############, oil paints, original oil paintings, painting, wood | Permalink
