updates on larger oils



"Pear Shaped II" by Sandra Galda
16"x20" oil on gessoboard
(in process)

"Peter's Garden Lunch" by Sandra Galda
16" x 20" oil on gessoboard
(in process)

Above are two of the larger oils I am working on. I have continued to work on the Peters lunch and started this new one with all the pears. Both still need work.  Not sure on the titles yet. It takes a bit longer to paint a larger image!  I will be back to some small works soon.  If interested in purchasing this, or any of my available art on this blog, contact my email address sgalda@aol.com or use the PayPal button if included in the post. Small works are signed in full on the back of the painting. Thanks for looking, tell me what you think-leave a comment! Paintings by Sandra Galda are copyrighted. Scroll down this page for more art!

I have commented before on "Peter's Lunch". So nice. I like "pear Shapes II" also. I need to look up # 1.
I have loved your small daily's too. The avacados and others.

Excellent use of blueberries in the top piece, Sandra. I think they make the scene by breaking up the green and orange colour wise and adding a delicate contrast to the other solid objects. Very well done - I'm very impressed :)

Sandra, I think you have found your voice with these larger works. The drawing, the color harmony and the arrangements are very strong.
I love this!

thank you everyone for the super encouragement, as you all know big works are a challenge in time and fortitude. I hope to keep a overall look and approach and not overwork it too much... I am shooting for a slightly more finished formal look...more realistic yet still with the lively brushwork. Not easy to do.
