What I'm Playing With ...



This is not the painting. This is the image composite that I did first in Photoshop. It is what I work from, as I am not capable of driving out there and painting 'plein air.'

It is another California vineyard view landscape.

I am also working on two other canvases, one being another vineyard, and one is another Monterey Peninsula scene.

............

My eye is slowly improving. The muscles loosen daily so that the left eye doesn't cause double vision as close to center as before. I can actually focus on something about 20 degrees off center.

The ice cream headaches are history. The sinuses still are painful on that side (no problem on my right side.) Feels like my face was stuffed with Jalapenos.

............

This is what the TSA should do in airports instead of copping a feel from everyone who flies these days. I don't like flying anymore.If I ever go back to CA for a visit, I'm driving. Besides, it is cheaper.

The composition is great in your preliminary work. Can't wait to see the finished painting. I love the security solution. Luggage could also go through a detonating chute. I'm sure someone will find a reason why this is not practical but I sure like it.

Hey Dude. Do you miss LeBron yet? What have you been cooking lately? I pickled beets the other day. They go well with hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, cottage cheese, just about anything.

Like the airport security.Glad that things are slowly improving there.
Great on the technique in photo shop.

Liking it. But picturing all the stuff that could be shipped air freight or come on with the crew, or... you get the idea. There is no way to make travel of any kind 100% safe.

Not a bad sketch, either, although I think I'd look at the section at the bottom again. It needs something, but then maybe you were going to put the "something" in later.

And three cheers for the Healing Eye!

I love the answer to the security problem; it's the perfect solution! I am glad your eye is so much better and that it did not harm your vision. How long will you have to take the antibiotics?

At least you are playing with a full deck!!!

I looooove the TSA idea! I am glad your eye is improving! What a pain...

I loved the Monterey Peninsula scene There was definitely something 'haunting' about it. Loved it.
Thank goodness the pain has eased for you, you have been in my thoughts even more over the last few days Try not straining to see through the bad eye - let it heal gradually (and don't go 'rubbing it')!
(nagging over)!
I think you have sorted out the airport security perfectly!

I've done over 30 Monterey scenes. Have you looked on my web site? The paintings are on several pages... Old work, art for sale, vineyards and art sold.

Love your Photoshop technique. That is one cool app.

That airport security is a winner! What happens when hot air Republican blowhards get in one, I wonder....

Glad you are feeling better each day....

Sounds like the perfect solution to me, too. Just remind me to stand back several feet when the person in front of me goes in there.
