The ‘Eleven’ Series
#5- ‘The Little House’-Oil on Canvas, 8” x 10” Craig L Haupt
As with the previous post of ‘Red Sphere’ this painting is less about narrative and more about color. In particular, the transition of color, starting with the light blue at the ‘house’ and spiraling its way inward to the ‘faces’.
I will be participating in an upcoming Group Exhibit at Y:Art Gallery to show these 11 paintings.
A little ways off, I will still include the Exhibition dates and related information with each Monday Art posting and will Share their FB Event posting as it becomes available.

The “Eleven” Series
#4-“Red Sphere”-Oil on Canvas, 8” x 10” Craig L Haupt
From a very simple ‘doodle’ in my sketchbook I choose to maintain that simplicity in the line work and rely more on color to strengthen the final image.
A touch more abstract then I am used to doing and also void of any narrative.

The “Eleven” Series
#3-“Bob & Bob”-Oil on Canvas, 8” x 10” Craig L Haupt
Of the eleven paintings in this series, there are two that are reworks of earlier Pen & Ink drawings. This is one. On the original Bob & Bob drawing there was a design element on the figure to the right whose clarity as an eye, was not as strong as it could have been. This oil painting series afforded me a chance to alter that design ‘flaw’ with a different medium.
Even with the change I was able to keep the general flavor afforded the Pen & Ink/Watercolor/Color pencil drawing, yet have an oil painting that was independent of the original.

“Reaching”-Oil on Canvas, 8” x 10” Craig L Haupt
On day Two of my “break” from painting (March 29th), I happened to see a relativity simple Doodle in my Sketch book. I looked over and saw a small 8” x 10” canvas. Suddenly the ‘break’ was over and I started on this several-week whirlwind of eleven 8” x 10” paintings. They are simple in design, quick in execution, some with a looser painting style than others, and most, are void of any narrative other than what an applied title might miserly suggest. They became an enjoyable exercise that set the tone for a few paintings in the second part of the upcoming 12 + 12 project.
This is the first of the eleven, Titled “Reaching”, and these will be posted each Monday in the order that they were painted.
