This is a departure for me. I am working with really small brushes and sitting down.. I feel like maybe I should be working with gouache.

In Progress.
Oil on Stretched Canvas.

This is a departure for me. I am working with really small brushes and sitting down.. I feel like maybe I should be working with gouache.
About Me
- Name: Amy Albert
- Location: New York, United States
I have been painting for many years. I consider myself a Colorist. After graduating from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, I went on to become a successful Textile and Surface Designer in New York City. My Design Work resulted in collections of rugs, fabrics, paper products, and tableware for the Apparel and Home Furnishings Industries. Although I received immeasurable satisfaction from my work in the Textile and Surface Design Field, I continued to pursue my Fine Art. Since moving to the famous artists’ town of Woodstock, New York, I hve focused my creativity on Fine Art. I have taken classes and intensive workshops at the Woodstock School of Art with Jordan Wolfson, and Karen O’Neil. I also studied privately with Ms. O’Neil, who in turn studied with Henry Hensche. My paintings can be found in private collections throughout the country. I am represented by Art Gallery 333 in North Falmouth, Massachusetts; Gallery Central in Hot Springs, Arkansas; and more recently by The Millbrook Gallery in Concord, New Hampshire.

I like the play of light from the windows on the glass objects and the color is great!
it's also difficult for me to work small and I have had some struggles with it. I was taught to paint with the whole arm, also not to get too close to the picture plane. My eyes are getting worse and now, I am finding myself really too close to this small works, which are only 4 by 6 many times.
Its a learning curve, keep up the good work.
shant: yes, i was also taught to paint with my whole arm.
so these small paintings are a real challenge to me.
thank you for your kind comments.
( i have to use reading glasses for the smaller things, sometimes i get confused ), !!!
