Memories of the West

Here are some quick studies I've been posting to my Facebook page each day. These paintings are anywhere between 30-80 minutes. A large part of my childhood was spent in New Mexico and Utah. They are two places I absolutely love. I wanted to catch some of those good old memories that sparked my imagination from the places my parents took my brother, sisters and I.  I guess what I'm trying to say is that these places and ideas are special to me.

These are really good.

I was wondering, are most of your color studies from imagination entirely or do you often use some kind of reference. Like, what would you say your ratio of using a reference and not using a reference is?

lovely color sketches !

Lovely compositions!

Meg Burk said...

I've spent a large portion of my childhood and vacations in New Mexico as well, and that makes me appreciate these studies so much more. They are beautiful and well done, and they capture the essence of the landscape in such areas very well!

Awesome *_* Fantastic!!!!!

Ty Carter said...

Thanks so much for your kind words guys!

CJ-If you look below at some of the other posts, i have laid out how i work. I usually paint from life on these studies but the ones above are out of my head while looking at a page of references. I usually gather a page that has 10-15 good reference images. from there i just paint out ideas and check myself with the references. Thanks for all your comments! Let me know if that answers your question

It's in fact very complex in this busy life to listen news on Television, so I simply use internet for that reason, and take the most recent news.

We could be waiting a little longer than anticipated Nike NFL Jersey to find out if the NFL will make a return to Los Angeles in 2016. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported that New York Jets owner Woody Johnson told reporters on Wednesday that a vote for relocation 2015 hot jerseys could be pushed back to March. Johnson made the comment after the Committee on wholesale jersey Los Angeles Opportunities held a meeting at the 2015 Nike NFL Green Salute To Service Limited Jersey league's home office in NHL Jersey New York.

If your QuickBooks won't open, then that indicates the possibility of a corrupted or missing QBWUSER.INI file; also, you may be using a corrupted hard drive. There are a lot of fixes, but the most effective one is to use QuickBooks Tool Hub. Make sure to use the updated version, if you have already downloaded it, then open the QuickBooks Tool Hub and click About, to see the tool's version. Otherwise, to download this tool go to the QB homepage and search for QuickBooks Tool Hub then install it to your computer after following the on-screen instructions. Then open the tool and click Program problems and then click Quick fix my program. Call the QB support; if still, your QuickBooks won't open.
