March and April continues my resolution

Continuing daily postings of previously painted compositions, here are 36 more, getting me to the Cherry Blossom Festival, the last weekend in April. Although I have many more paintings to show, Plein Air season has officially begun and I have reached 100 posts. That about 70 more than I had resolved to do. There are a lot of buildings, a few more water sites and lots of flowers in these few weeks.
So, I’m going out to paint now. 😊

WIP. Evolution of a colored Glass Painting

This is the original set up, some were moved, others added or subtracted until I was happy with the composition.  16x20” oil.

Saturday at Buffalo Cherry Blossom Festival

Guests of the History Museum are checking out my work in progress on the Museum porch. I chose the Albright Knox and the new building in progress, seen behind the pink blossoms of the Japanese Cherry Blossom Garden. 

Only 5x7, this is the plan for the large oil painting below.

10”x20”, the two museums are separated by beautiful trees in all seasons. And a parkway, can you pronounce Squajaquada?

Paintings posted January and February

January 1, 2023

It’s time for a new resolution.

"I will post daily for the month of January."

It worked in January, I did it every day, so I posted daily in February too. That’s 59 paintings, mostly older ones that I dragged out for the month. I tried to post only a few that had sold and passed up some of the best ones, hoping to use them later. The paintings went on Instagram and/or Facebook, most always on both social media platforms.  After a while I chose subjects for each week. These images are taken from my instagram page. @kathschifano.

A New Year Resolution in progress.

Want to see lots of older paintings? My New Year's resolution is to post paintings daily in January, so I began with paintings from 2015 and 2016. They can be found on Instagram as well as Facebook. This is a screenshot of the first 10 posts of January, starting with the large Sailboat, 'Barcelona Lunch'. 



The last two shots are the Christmas Blizzard and my new studio wall, set up for the holiday open house.
