Flamenco Passion - original oil figurative painting by Connie Chadwell


This painting - 8 x 8" on Gessobord - was one that I did quickly without much attention to detail.  When I noodle too much, I always kill it, so I just let it go.  Hope it shows motion - that's what I was after in this piece.  Today was a moody day - dark and rainy - and a great day to stay inside and paint.  And with Mother Nature watering my tomatoes and roses, I had no gardening cares!
Yesterday, I mentioned a support I enjoyed using and today I found that it's Creative Mark Centurion.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!   Have a great Thursday!

 If you would like to inquire about this painting, just email me.

I have booked to take my caravan to Spain for three weeks this summer, all going well and the pain I have has gone. Your paintings make me wish it ws next week I was going they are making me smell the air and feel the mood and emotion of the place.

Connie, Looks like you got a lot of good feel here...I like the musician lodged at the back...nice touch and it adds some flow.
Nice you had MN working for you! The only thing I have growing is mint, and
well it's got a life of it's own. :-)

Hi Connie. I love your blog, keep posting I really enjoy your comments and your work is inspirational. I too enjoy painting the female figure. I haven't even attempted motion yet, still struggling with hand size which I keep getting wrong.

Hey Ralph, I'm so glad you're doing well and am delighted my paintings make you think of pleasant things! Spain - wow - that sounds wonderful!

Hi Nina -great to hear from you! I laughed when I read about the mint. I once planted it in the yard because it just smelled so nice - and it totally took over. Now I have it in a pot!
