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

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.

Acrobatic Cuties


(oil on panel, 8 x 8)

Hup, hup, hup!  The cuties are stacked up; ready to cheer!
Ok, so I play with my food.

This was painted on a panel painted with that fabulous copper paint that you can oxidize & then seal.
It makes for an interesting background.  
See some of my earlier paintings last January for more of this background style.

Thank you for viewing my paintings.

Cuties


(oil on convex canvas 8 x 10)

I love this time of year when Clementines come into the market.
These tart/sweet citrus fruits are so tasty.
I must say: they are also fun to paint.
This "convex canvas" needs no framing and is hung flat to the wall.

Thank you for viewing my paintings.
Happy cutie season!

Big Red


(oil on board, 6x6)

 I really enjoy these quick small paintings.  I take more risks with them and 
seem to learn more skills from doing smaller works.

Thank you for viewing my paintings.

Heinz


(oil on panel, 6x6)

It is always so interesting for me to post paintings.  
This helps me to see my work in a more detached version.
So naturally, I see things that I may change in future paintings.
This is how the practice of "Daily Paintworks" helps me grow as an artist.

Thank you for viewing my paintings.
