Hot Tango - original oil figurative painting
I've hesitated to post this painting because it is similar to another one I did recently, just smaller. But I really love this little painting - it's looser and more juicy than I usually do. Note to me - don't strive for precision, or what passes for precision with me, just let go. It's 7 x 5" on gessoed board.
Thanks so much for stopping by! SOLD

More Tango Passion - original oil figurative painting
And now back to tango.
For some reason - I think because I took the picture early this morning with available light, (I usually take pictures under lights) it doesn't appear as gold in the background as it really is. Anyway, this painting is 7 x 5", oil on board. Thanks for stopping by! SOLD

Another Flamenco - original oil figurative painting
Using the previously posted drawing as my model, I painted this little flamenco dancer today when I attended the Thursday Painters - a group of artists who paint together once a week.
When I do the larger version of this painting, I will be able to include the fan that's in the drawing.
This is done on Gessobord, 7 x 5". Thanks for visiting my blog!

Tango Twist - original oil figure painting
I was searching through an old box of oil paints the other day and discovered my long lost tube of cadmium orange. I'm able to mix a wide range of colors - including a really vibrant orange - because for many years I painted with only titanium white, ivory black, venetian red and yellow ochre. But I just love cadmium orange. I used some in this piece - hope I didn't overdo it. Ahhh - it can be so dramatic. Welcome back, old friend!
This painting is 7 x 5" on Gessobord. Thanks for looking! SOLD

Tango Romance - original oil figure painting
Here's another of my tango paintings - a tough pose to do, but when you're painting something you love, it works out. This dance combines expressiveness and the beauty of the figure in motion - two of my favorite things; so no matter what else I may draw or paint, I always come back to tango. This one is 7 x 5" on gessoed board.
It's so cold today that I just stayed in my cozy studio and did five new small paintings (including this one) that I will post in the coming days.
Thanks for stopping by!SOLD

Tango Mood - oil figure painting
This little painting is one of my favorites - everything just worked. She kept her head down the way I wanted and they both cooperated because, I think, they really wanted to dance together.
It's 7x5" on gessoed board. Thanks for stopping by!
