S Is For…
S is for…
Ink Pens
S is for sepia. S is for sanguine, sienna, and sinopia, a natural red iron oxide. S is for Spanish black, saffron yellow, and sap green. S is for a spectrum of saturated colors, subdued into shades when in shadow. S is for secondary colors, split complements, and creating your own style.
S is for sketch. S is for stipple, scumble, and silverpoint. S is for school kids in smocks snipping paper silhouettes with scissors. S is for the symmetry of a square or a sphere, and for the satisfaction of turning such simple shapes into scenery.
S is for…
Ink Pens
S is for scratchboard, and supplies scattered about the studio. S is for solvents, stand oil, and soft sable brushes. It’s for stumps, canvas stretchers, salamander restorative, and spatulas for spreading sizing on supports.
S is for seascapes. S is for still lifes, stained glass, sfumato, and stencils. S is for sculptors, and statues from stone. S is for silk screens, self-portraits, and sumi-e ink paintings. S is for signing your name before making the slide.
S is for Shayer, Scott, and Speed. S is for Seurat and Signac, who showed at the Salon des Independents, and for Sargent and Sisley, who showed at the Salon de Paris. S is for Sennelier, who is still making paint.
S is for savoring sumptuous works of art.
