Happy New Year Steemers!
What a year it has been and as I reflect upon my art journey over the last year I bring to you my best studio paintings that I created in 2017.
All of these paintings took a long time to paint and required a lot of prior planning from photos, sketches and colour studies prior to the finished art works. I have learned a lot this year about colour, tone, composition and achieve a depth dynamic in my paintings. I have a long way to go, but 2018 is going to be even better.
Here are my best studio paintings of 2017, all are painted in oils.
