"After the commitment to begin a series is made, it begins to take on a life of its own. With each additional painting in a series, the original thought grows into something more refined and bigger than a singular painting could ever be. Every addition allows the artist’s voice to get louder and clearer, demonstrating that they are on a path, know what they’re doing, where they’re going, and what they have to do to get there." ~ Lynette Ubel
"A series is a collection of paintings that, when viewed, leaves no doubt that the same artist created them all. The theme running through the work is stated and restated in different yet interconnected ways, and the viewer can look at the collection and understand more easily what the artist is trying to convey." ~ Lynette Ubel As a warm-up, I decided to do a smaller oil painting of several of the designs I'm using in my 2026 Calendars. This is a photo of my painting setup with the image sketched on my canvas board.
