Children in a Pine Tree, oil on board, 12 by 14 in. Emilia Kallock 2017
Painting to celebrate Earth Day. May we leave a healthy wholesome place for future generations. Reward for sitting for live painting: a bit of organic applesauce cake and deviled (from free range) eggs. Asking the kids to sit any longer than five minutes on a beautiful spring day just didn’t seem feasible or constructive. Remainder of painting completed in studio.
In the Sculpture Garden, Santiago, Chile, oil on board, 12 by 18 in. Emilia Kallock
A three hour session creating the sepia layer in my first try at sfumato, an Italian renaissance painting technique that Leonardo and Rembrandt used. We’ll see where it goes from here.

Parque Ideas, watercolor and pen on paper, 10 by 12 in. Emilia Kallock 2016
A continued focus on flowers, trees and public parks while I am here in Chile. The following watercolors are observations on the peaceful vibe always felt in the well attended plazas. I also continue fantasizing about park designs which I feel would be like 3-D painting but with living things. The Jacaranda tree and the Bougainvillea vine are currently stealing my heart.
