PINK ARRAY

 

SOLD

I've been painting with watercolour a lot lately however, this morning, it was time to get back to oil. I love painting two vases of flowers side by side, since they 'play' off each other. And, I added a nice strong side light. Super fun.

BREWED ICED TEA

 

$100 - 6x6" original oil painting on 1/4" cradled panel.

The first thing I did, before painting this, was brew some hot tea. And, due to the steamy looking night in this piece, I decided that was a good title. #heehee

SWEET TREATS

 

$100

6x6" original oil painting on 1/4"deep panel. Artist quality supplies. Sides painted to match. Lightly varnished.

I loooove pink and red together. I also love these new 6x6" panels that I purchased. They are 1/4" thick, so they are nice and light. Also, the grain is very smooth and lovely to paint on. Thanks to Sarah Sedwick for an awesome still life set up.

GOOD MORNING

 

OIL - $100

6x6" original oil painting on 3/4" deep cradled panel.

This morning bunch got the window seat!

After being so inspired by my last flower painting, I decided to get into the daily painting process again. So, off to the flower shop for this pretty bunch, all of whom say "good morning" to you. ; )

Abby and her whiskers

SOLD

Abby the Mouse has the cutest whiskers ever! Not to mention her adorable pink nose. Finger puppets are so fun and, it turns out, a blast to paint. I'm using bright contrasting colours for my backgrounds for this series. My hand studies continue with my little puppet collection helping me out. Sides painted.

crunchy shine

 

SOLD

6x6" original oil painting on 3/4" panel

Well, that's the second spoon I ever painted! (The first was from a Carol Marine reference photo and this one is from a Sarah Sedwick photo). Reflections in silver are always fun, like the green apples, but this time there's a kick on light on the inside of the creamer! Every painting brings a new little somethin'-somethin' to the game. ; )

A little snack and a deep breath of fresh air. Ahh... summertime. It's time to sit down with a cup of tea and a crisp apple. And enjoy a painting of the same. ; ) Heehee.

I used a photo from the generous Sarah Sedwick again (thanks Sarah!) and I changed it again too. This time I added an extra apple slice instead of the creamer. The apples are one big happy family.

These cherries are checking out their reflections! 

There was originally a spoon in this photo reference, but I took it out and added cherries to match the lovely reds in the jelly. Thanks to Sarah Sedwick for her generosity - she's always supplying awesome photos to work from.

Regal Profile

 

SOLD

$150 - 6x6" original oil painting on 1/8"board

Painting this model's portrait was a very zen experience for me. It was early on a Sunday morning and as I painted, I listened to a fellow artist with not only a British accent, but also a buttery voice. It was just wonderful. I kinda zoned out while I relied on all of my past painting experience to get it right. Very happy with this one (and it's pair posted next!)

$60 - 6x6" oil painting with painted sides to match background.
I used the awesome Sktchy App to find this lovely model's photo. I changed her earrings, which were big white distracting shells, and made them feather earrings. Remember those? I just thought they'd suit her 'look'. : )

two balloons

Can you see the two balloons? There is a lot going on in this painting! I love painting skies and cars... and pennants... and flags and of course... balloons!

I love orange and purple together! And these little purple flowers didn't disappoint as they quietly peaking over the edges of the bright orange cup. : )
