Look to the Light, Figurative Child Painting by Texas Artist Julia Koutroulis

Look to the Light
24 x 24 inches, oil on canvas
 
 I was at a wedding where the bride had made all of the lovely flower girl dresses using strips of luminous tulle. The result was stunning.  The girls looked like they were floating on air.  It really inspired me to start a series. This painting is the second. I turned her head away from the viewer, adding a sense of mystery.  I wonder what she sees beyond the light.
 
 
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5

Whispered Secrets, Figurative Children Painting by Texas Artist Julia Koutroulis


Whispered Secrets
24 x 30 inches, oil on canvas

 I was recently at a wedding where the bride had made all of the lovely flower girl dresses using strips of luminous tulle. The result was stunning.  The girls looked like they were floating on air.  It really inspired me to start a series. This painting is the first. Here they are, dressed and ready for the wedding to begin. If we're very quiet, maybe we'll hear what secrets they're telling.

Here is another stunning painting in Colorado!  Visit Mirada Fine Art and talk with Steve Sonnen the owner. Mirada has a broad collection of Laurie Pace’s signature equine paintings.

The weather is finally a bit cooler from the 100 degree plus days... down to the low nineties. It will
not stay long, but we will enjoy it as it is.  This weekend is more birthdays for us to celebrate. So studio time will not be had until Monday.  I have been putting off a new painting for my youngest grandson, Mark Edward, who is about 5 months old now.  I promised them a painting for his nursery and have had something in mind and will be starting on some sketches pretty soon. I will share my process as this will NOT be a contemporary piece, but an impressionistic painting that I hope he will have with him throughout his life. 

Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice. Psalm 112:5
