Falls Lake NC Paintings

By Clina Polloni

Clina Polloni Painting Plein Air

Painting Plein Air with my friends and students at different times of the year. Inspired by the beautiful scenery, enjoying a delicious picnic and having lots of fun.

We all artists loves colors! And here they are in the front of our eyes! Greens, blues, teals, oranges and yellows, creating a palette of vibrant fantasy.

The lake is named for the Falls of the Neuse, a once whitewater section of the river that fell from the Piedmont into the lower Coastal Plain submerged during construction of the lake.

Traveling through the beautiful country roads of North Carolina I see these silent ponds, they have so much to tell us about the old life. For the farmers they were their primary water source for agriculture, cooking, cleaning and most important for their children to play in a summer day.

Portrait of Isabella de Polloni y Lepiani.

Isabella de Polloni y Lepiani.

My family is a family of artists. From generations to generations, we had supported and embraced the ARTS.

The original Polloni family were merchants and artists that moved from Florence, Italy to Cádiz, Spain. In this city Francisco de Polloni y Lepiani was born in 1733. he moved to Chile in 1752, starting the genealogy of the Polloni family in Chile.

As a present to him, I had created a sister in a painting, her name is Isabella de Polloni y Lepiani, portraying her time in history, her loving expression of the eyes and smile.

Francisco de Polloni y Lepiani history:

Polloni Family Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Familia-Polloni-100070478582654/

Instructions:

In this painting I started by drawing Isabella with pastels over the canvas. Defining the light and the shade.
Using oils I started painting the skin, blending light and shade to the color of the skin. Repeat the process as many times as it is necessary to create a soft skin. Follow by lips, eyes and hair.
Painted the background in deep colors to accent the face.
Finally, her close with light, shade and cold tones, Cerulean Blue, Phthalo Green and Phthalo Blue.
