Mixed media ~ high key painting.
For those who do not paint high key means colours are mostly from the light
end of the value scale. Value meaning light and dark.
Had this painting in mind for a while. Worked on it and put it away.
Will re-do at some point because I believe I used acrylic over oil. A definite no, but you can use acrylic first and then paint with oil paint. I thought I would remember what paint I used. No, take notes.
The figure in the painting could be a little larger as well, I think.
Nuthatch painted in acrylic on a wall above a light switch.
Watched Jane Austen: Rise of a Genius on Britbox this past weekend.
At a time when men mostly spoke for women, Jane stepped up to manage her own business and was able to keep her copyright. She was remarkable in so many ways.
The Other Bennet Sister on Britbox is good series too.
What’s your favourite Jane Austen book?
Mine is: Persuasion with Pride and Prejudice coming in second.
Be well and stay strong.

This was an enjoyable read! Reading, btw... a lot of books parallel, but none of hers. Have a great T-Day and just keep calm ;-)
Lovely post Dixie. I enjoyed the photos, and I learned what high key means. That's a great painting. I read the Other Bennett sister a couple of years ago and didn't know it was now a series. That documentary about Jane Austen sounds interesting too. I hope you have a lovely T day and week ahead. hugs-Erika
I really loved the boats that float and those that don't. Very clever and great photos, too.
It was interesting when you explained what high key means. I'd never heard that before, but I'm not a painter. Loved the bee, too.
That tea mug gave good advice and the tea was perfect for T this week, dear Dixie.
Dixie this is a brilliant post. From creative skies to boats that float. I really like the one that doesn't float. Nice shutters. I really like the table with art supplies and flowers. All of the photos are wonderful but my fave is your time traveler. Have a very nice day today.
