Different Strokes Challenge6 x6
oil on door skin
This was my first attempt at the Different Strokes From Different Folks blog biweekly challenge and I have to say this isn't a subject I would normally think of painting but I really started to enjoy it once I looked for simple color patterns. I was definitely pushed on this one and am looking forward to future challenges.

Loooooooooooooooove it! I envy you're ability to pick all that subtle light on the building. I'll have to google door skin because I have no idea what that is. Now back to my attempt on the challenge. wish me luck lol
It is beautiful. The colors and the way you cropped the pic.
What is a door skin???
Thank you Sheila and Irit and have fun and good luck with your 'challenge' paintings.
A doorskin is a thin wood veneer meant for resurfacing a door and it must be sealed first with severals coats of Kilz Sealer and then several coats of gesso but it makes for a nice inexpensive surface for oils.
Wow, I would say you have already found your style! You have the touch of a colorist and it shows up beautifully in your paintings.
Thanks Barb.
