The Challenge of Painting (4) 6x6 Canvases-Part 5
/
This is the fifth video in a series where I attempt to paint (4) 6x6 canvases for my friends at the Lafayette Art Association in Lafayette, LA: https://www.lafayetteart.org/
Their 6x6 Event is an annual fundraiser where they provide (100) 6x6 canvases to artists, then auction the finished paintings. The auction is December 1, 2024. I have taught numerous workshops there and I love the people, the organization and the place-so please show them some love if possible.
In this video I begin applying green paint over the red base I created in Part 1. I’ll have to say that after painting all 4 of these 6x6 canvases, they were much more challenging than I expected. I also spent way too much time on each one to make any profit selling them.
Thanks for joining me on this journey, I appreciate it.
Thanks again for your continued support! I love you all!
