At this size, maybe I've got clams 'out of my system' - ahem.... Seriously I did have such a blast painting these - I used, rose, sevres blue, indigo, cad yellow medium, cobalt, a hint of orange and alizarin - this is not your mothers' still life!
Perhaps you do not know who my mother is ;-) I do like what you've discovered in the clams, there are so many subtle colors in their shells, and you really capture that!
Paintings on this site may still be available for sale. If interested contact me at kcareymac@hotmail.com
What's Up In My Studio? by Kelley Carey MacDonald
This is a secondary blog to my Daily Painting Blog, where I'll put up paintings that I'm working on, or paintings that are hanging in various shows, or just interesting things that I've seen or done. I welcome comments anytime, on the page or via email (kcareymac@hotmail.com).I love to paint and am grateful every day that I get to explore this wonderful life in this way. My family is tremendously supportive, and I have a fantastic circle of friends who paint, and other wonderful friends who support me and allow me to visit even though I probably have streaks of magenta in my hair or cadmium yellow smeared across my face.This is my personal journey, and this, I think, is where I find peace for my soul. Thanks for looking in... Kelley

These are awesome.
Oh, Nini, I DOOOOOO know who your mother is:) And I'm going a little 'clam crazy' these days!
