8x10 oil

Day 9, 30 paintings in 30 days

I actually worked on this painting a few months

Ago, but hadn't shared it. I am thinking of using this as a study to do a large 30" x40" painting.

 I cropped it off of the bottom for the size to work in

I am not normally a huge fan of yellow. However, 

This new black eyed susan plant became so 

beautiful, I had to cut them and set up a

Still life.

It has a lot of texture and the great design 

On one of my favorite vases.

I would love comments in my work, on to

  The texture of fur on this painting was my favorite part to do.

Anniversary Flowers

Day 2 of 30 in 30

These roses were on their way to the garbage can.

I decided to paint them and they made a detour into my studio.

I am so very happy with the outcome. Impressionistic and a forever memory to cherish our 39 the anniversary.

Peonies in a Pot

This represents Day 1 of the annual 

30 paintings in 30 days with Leslie Saeta.

This was fun small square painting to do.

Peonies are one of my favorite flowers. We have pink peonies by the bucket full every Spring.

The texture in the flowers is always the exciting part to do.
