About Me
- craigstephens
- I am an artist living in Northern California. In 1993 I graduated from U.C. Davis where I took classes from Wayne Thiebaud, Dave Hollowell and Roy DeForest. I currently teach high school art in Placer County California. On this blog I have posted 1000 paintings in as many days. I took a break from that strict schedule for a couple of years but since the beginning of 2014 I have been completing one small painting on a daily basis. The practice of completing a painting a day suits my disposition and aesthetic. I have also found that modeling this sort of daily practice for my students is important. I am making these paintings available on ebay. Thanks for stopping by and check back often if you like what you see.

I love this. Your palette sort of, ...relaxes my whole face. Does that make sense?
It make sense to me! Thank you.
Great nocturne. Did you do it with an LED light? I've seen those headlamps advertised in the plein air catalogs. Have you tried them?
Thanks James!
I've never tried a head lamp. I did this with a little clamp on LED on a flexible goose neck. I mixed my palette before I went out. The LED is pretty dim and I can mostly just see values with it. The colors in this are pretty subtle and I wanted to get them close to what I wanted under better lighting.
