Quick Bra Study by Kay Wyne

Here you go....the bra challenge.....I think I would of enjoyed it if I had more time. But I decided that I liked the back view of the bra. I painted with oils on a 9" x 12" canvas. Maybe I will try another quick painting. Thanks to a friend....of course no names right now..... for the turquoise bra. I guess one good thing about this challenge is that it pushes us out of our comfort zone!!!!!

Getting ready to paint...


Since this is the last day of the month, I still have time to paint the bra challenge. I don't want anyone to think that I haven't been working on this...I really have put some thought into it. Here is a pic of the dressmaker's form with a colorful bra and Mardi Gras beads. I thought the beads really jazzed it up. Now that it has taken me a month to put it all together, the pressure is on.....more tomorrow. Kay

I think this will be my final bra painting, at least for the time being.  So many other things to paint and I'm satisfied with my exploration of this subject for now.

This month's challenge is "BRA."  I submitted the challenge and I'm happy that it was chosen.  It is a different still life that most artists paint and that is one reason I thought it would be a good subject.  In addition to that reason, I chose this topic because back in June of July when we were asked to submit challenge topics my daughter-in-law had been diagnosed with breast cancer.  Bras were on my mind!  By the way, she has completed chemo and breast reconstruction and is doing great!

February Challenge!

Alrighty. Bras. Well I don't know what to think about this topic. And nobody has posted a bra painting.....I guess I have my work cut out for me today. I think it is only fair that the crazy artist who picked this monthly topic would be the first to post a painting......so who is that crazy artist??? Have an artful day......Kay
