Orchid Joy


Oil on Canvas 24X48, 

The background for this painting is metallic oils knifed over one another.
Check out the magnified view; it just shimmers.
These orchids bloomed only once for me and I can't get them to bloom again.
So happy I painted them. 

Thanks for viewing my paintings

Velvet Rose


Oil/Gold Foil on Canvas, 40 x 40 
This is a big velvet rose that wasn't working until I gold leafed the background.
I also put gold leaf on the frame.  It is stunning.
(Even if I do say so myself)

Thank you for viewing my big Rose!

Rose is a Rose


Oil on Canvas 36 x 36, Sold

This is a rose I painted a while ago.  It is still one of my favorite roses.
I shall share more roses with you in the future as they are one of my favorite subjects.

Another study of Fruit, Cheese and Wine on a Mirror.
Makes me want a little snack.

Reflected Delights


Oil on Canvas 18 x 24 

I've been out of the studio for a while...don't ask!
But, all is well and I'm in front of my easel with great vigor.
Like most artists: I feel driven to paint and feel imbalanced 
when I have left the easel for any length of time
It is good to be back.
