Paintings painted by Gloria Poole

This is a painting in oils that I painted and named "sleeping in a stetson": this is my photo of it, the painting itself is larger. This is NOT a real person. The stetson is modeled after a man I dated after 2nd divorce, who was Southern [as I am]; and who wore a stetson some of the time. I saw him napping in his hat in his truck once at the steering wheel. I did not attempt to paint him for obvious reasons {we broke up in yr 2009} .

 I am updating some of my blogs that have my real name in them today.

This above is a watercolor sketch I drew and painted with watercolors. It is on paper in sketch book. I named it "Anglo-Saxon" . This Anglo-Saxon [ means half English half German] had a broken nose .  This is also NOT a real person. I usually do not try to paint real people. Generally, I think that might be insulting to THE ONE [GOD] who made them. I mostly paint only imaginary people--made up in my mind as I have a brush or pen in my hand.

 I also added seven sketches to another blog of mine today at: http://gpoole817.blogspot.com. When I added those I had not figured out how to make the photos the correct size.

 

This sketch above I drew/painted and named "Brown lady with scarf-hat" . It is a NOT a real person.  It was mostly trying to achieve a certain brown skin tone[ not black, not caucasian; not olive skin tones, and see if I could draw a scarf-hat I saw in a picture, that sort of look tied like a turban, but better--like a woman would do.] I didn't get the scarf-hat right but you can see it anyway. 

Sketches are simple an effort to get a clear direction in my mind of how I want something to look. I draw/paint them quickly, usually in 1/2 hr- 4 hrs at most, in either pencils, watercolors, acrylics, inks, charcoal, graphite. It is as much a learning effort as it is a viewing effort.

I had hundreds of my photos on my repository site at gloriapoole.com when I owned that domain. That content was supposed to have been destroyed since I could not prevent cyber-criminals from breaking into it. But in most cases I have the actual art I created and also backup photos of it. 

 You my see more of my art on my blog at http://gloriapoole.blogspot.com. and on the links on that blog, and on other blogs of mine. Gloria is my born with Christian name, which means glory to GOD.

 I Gloria Poole am a WHITE, single, woman, who happens to be a Registered Nurse, and an artist; and I live in Missouri since Oct 2009. I am originally from Georgia. This sketch brown lady is not me and it is not a real person, to repeat.
