Three in a row | Drei am Stück

I did these three little studies in one session, each in one hour including the breaks. I worked with Sonja for the first time and she was great concerning the diffucult poses. Each 20 x 15 cm, Oil on Matboard with White, Light Ochre Cad Red and Ivory Black.

Ich malte alle drei Studien in einer Sitzung, für jede benötigte ich eine Stunde inklusive Pausen. Mit Sonja malte ich zum ersten Mal und Sie war super, wenn man die Schwierigkeit der Posen berücksichtigt. Jedes ist 20 x 15 cm, Ölfarbe auf Passepartoutkarton und die Palette war: Titanweiss, Lichter Ocker , Kadmiumrot und Elfenbeinschwarz.

Really great gestures and colors, especially the one in the center. The colors on her face are gorgeous.
One hour each including breaks? You probably did them in 45 minutes. Amazing.

Hi Silvina,
like Degas used to say: Painting is no sport!
I have to admit I sometimes paint like that.
Thank you very much!

Thanks, Joe!

Sandra,
it felt so good painting them. You know the moment when you don´t think anymore and become an eye.
Thanks!

Große Gemälde, ich lieben wirklich Ihre Arbeit, es auch hilft mir mit meinem Deutsch, das sehr rostig jetzt ist.

Great paintings, I love your work, but it also helps me with my German, which is very rusty now.

Hi John,
I appreciate your German and I am always impressed if someone has learned it. Even as a native speaker it is fairly difficult.
Thanks for your comment.
Cheers..Nue.

Thanks Michael! I was pretty amazed how colorful one can get with this limited palette.

Stefan Nuetzel said...

Hey René, you are always so encouraging. Thanks for that.

Love the top piece Stefan!......those blues in the shadow really play off well against the warmer skin tones.

Stefan Nuetzel said...

Thanks, Jared! The blue is actually Ivory Black. Isn´t it stunning how color works?
