Post 190: What's On Your Easel Right Now?

What's On Your Easel Right Now?

PWAS Members show off what's on their easel (in the studio) right now.

PWAS Member's Artwork on the Easel in July 2022

The Prince William Art Society members are periodically asked this question for this blog and they graciously answer with a sneak peek into their studios (or wherever they are right now) to have a look at what they are currently working on. Some pieces look nearly finished, some are in the beginning processes. Psst, come on, let's take a look...

1. Donna Liguria

"A Day at Blue Ridge Shores" Acrylic, 24x24 https://donnaliguriaart.com
Still tweaking a few areas of this painting that I began while on vacation earlier in July. 

2. Otis Stanley

"This Far By Faith" Charcoal drawing, will paint in acrylic16x20

3. Jortt aka John Hartt

Oil on canvas 20” x 20” www.jortt.com

4. Bilee Sciuto

This is Tango... He passed away and the granddaughter has asked for a picture to be done. Acrylic 11x17

5. Scott McDonald

My easel is currently set up at the Bob Ross Studio and Workshop in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. I’ve been here for two weeks getting certified to teach floral painting in the “alla-prima” or Wet-on-wet technique. I have one more week to complete for the certification.

6. Bruce Fasick

Rube Foster (for Rev Sims NLLHOF) “Can we play?” part of the upcoming Duets show (painting and sculpture)

7. Maureen Guillot

This is what's on my easel.  I'm attempting to paint these sunflowers before they die.  Each day they are different and they kind of move because they are slowly dying.  A real challenge.  I'm a slow painter. Oil painting on an 11x14 linen panel.

8. Staci Blanchard

Here is what is on my table/easel.  It’s a diptych and each piece is 12x24. It is an untitled acrylic pour.  I was inspired by the red color I used in this piece.  I hadn’t used it yet and I was really drawn to it and to see how it would play with the other colors.

9. Michelle Baker


My goal in this painting is simply to capture the beauty of one of my favorite places-an historic one-room school located in Fauquier County, Virginia. Built in 1887, Number 18 School sits in a tiny community garden which is lovingly tended to by volunteers in Marshall, Virginia.

10. Mark Murphy


I'm working on a small watercolor with a "Día de Muertos" theme for Hispanic Heritage Month.  Although death is a typically serious subject, I'm shooting for a whimsical skeleton couple that may end up under the "fun" portion of my website - http://www.markmurphystudios.com

11. Urmila Kumari


I used warm colors in this painting. I love to play with these bold colors. Theses colors keep me happy, warm and energetic. Medium: Acrylic, Size: 38x50x1.5 inches, Title: Happiness
