Latest work was a little different for me. I wanted to do a still life with the challenge of painting clear glass a friend lent me this vintage 1970s Jack Daniels decanter and I pulled this together. 36x48. I’m pretty happy with the result and will do another! #art #painting #jackdaniels

Still drying on my easel - another scene from the same spot in #winchesterma overlooking Mill Pond. This one is from dinner time when the sun lit the scene and the sky was such a deep cobalt blue….

Latest work… This is a farm that is in my hometown of Winchester, Massachusetts. It’s beautiful with walking trails in the back, a farm stand, and they host a lot of community events. #wrightlockefarm #WLFarm #massachusetts #winchester #painting #art

When I'm in the depths of despair about my country, painting a shelter dog always brings the happiness back. Lenny is one of the six I walk every week. He is a #jewel. #makersmARTch #oilpainting #art #dogs #rescuedogs
Lenny is happy, affectionate, and loves to take a snuggle break during our walk. I believe he's an Australian shepherd, about one year old. He came to us in bad shape - skinny, bug infested, living in a tiny crate - yet still smiling. He loves cheese and grilled hot dogs. Nothing can bring me out of sadness like a dog can.

Yesterday the sketch, today the final painting! 2 wknds, then ships name last night. Commission is for someone who researched ancestry to find the ship that brought his family to the US. Based on blurry B&W postcards & book photos. Set it in open sea - cool project! #art #painting #boat #ancestry

Just finishing a commission - loved the thought behind the request and the reading and research to turn an old B&W postcard into a full 24x36 oil painting. this was the boat from Portugal that brought their family to the US 100 years ago. Finished work coming soon…. #art #painting #boat #ancestry

A little line and wash from last night of a cozy second hand bookstore in the UK. I also write books (separate account) but it was fun to have a crossover with art and writing in this bookshop watercolor. #art #watercolor #painting

Day 31/ post for #angle and the final challenge for #januarty #januarty2025
(It’s been a fun applying my paintings for each category!)
This commissioned work of a couple’s vacation retreat definitely fits for today.
“Antigua Getaway”
oil on canvas (sold)
@fineartgallery.bsky.social #art @bsky.art
This was a commissioned work for a couple that wanted a vacation memory of their trip to Antigua. The place they stayed had this unique covered structure with a hammock, surrounded by a pool which overlooks the ocean. They spent most of their vacation just hanging out here and wanted it captured in a painting. The painting has a tropical feeling, lots of shades of blue in the water of the pool, ocean and sky, a few puffy clouds, and of course greens in the surrounding landscape of palms. The focal point is of course the pagoda style structure with a hammock beneath it.

Day 31 of #JanuArty #JanuArty2025
ANGLE
From a 1950s photograph by Lillian Bassman
#watercolor
My painting of a fashion model in profile. She is leaning back at an angle with one hand on her hip and the other hand on her hat. She is all in tones of gray/black, except a blue chandelier earring. Her background is made up of yellow, green, and aqua wavy lines slanted at the opposite angle.

Supermercato

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

#photography #EastCoastKin
Brilliant sun on a corner. The grey supermarket (supermercato) looks shabby. The sidewalk is losing some of its bricks. A lone figure carrying a bag walks by the supermarket, his shadow and the shadow of a hydro pole the only respite from the sun.

Happy Wednesday everyone! It’s Day 29 / #curve for the challenge in #januarty #januarty2025

“Country Road”
18x18 oil on canvas (gifted to a family member)
#curtisclarkpaintings #art #artsky @fineartgallery.bsky.social @bsky.art #oilpainting
The inspiration for this oil painting was from an autumn trip up to my family’s lake cabin in the Ozarks. The windy and curvy roads to get to the cabin were full of changing colors. Reds, orange and yellow stand out against the green among the trees.

Day 30 of #Januarty theme is “green”. Another old oil painting of mine.. I would take a small brush and paint every single leaf..because I thought things should look perfect close up…not just from a distance…🍃
A path leads upwards and on either sides there are trees and bluebells. The trees have a mass of green leaves along the top of the painting.
