"Hold On"

"Hold On" by Sandra Galda
16"x20" oil on canvas


I found out today that my painting "Hold On" was juried into a spring member's show at the Newburyport Art Association. It will hang in their gallery for viewing and sale most of April.  Check out the NAA web site here.  A slight fracture to my wrist while rollerskating with daughter's high school has slowed me down a little in the art department--it sure hurts. I have a hand /wrist brace with velcro straps to stabilize my wrist movement while it heals--I can still draw and paint.  "Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do" -Edgar Degas.  Thanks for looking, tell me what you think-leave a comment!

Update: in process Running Cast drawing exercise by Sandra Galda

Both of these images require extended time to complete, a different experience all together from the daily small paintings I usually post.  I love both approaches! I am in the really fun finishing stages in the oil painting and the cast drawing above !
