PINK PEONY sold


Peonies are not in season and I admit that this is a gorgeous silk flower that has great color. I am grateful that I finished this painting with time to spare because I have 2 pies to make for tomorrow. Thanksgiving! I wish you all a very blessed Thanksgiving and a joyful holiday season!

Beautiful, beautiful! I would want to go back in and start fussing...one of my failings! But you are brave and leave the gorgeous strokes to speak for themselves. Simplicity and intensity. Love it.
Happy Thanksgiving to you guys down there...we have ours in Oct. I used to live in the States and we always did a big Thanksgiving too-and I always loved watching the parades on tv...a secret vice!

Absolutely beautiful! I love the deep colors in the throat of the flower, the muted tones in the shadow and the bright highlights where the light hits the petals. Great job!

Hi Linda.
Beautiful impressionistic Painting, exactly how I love to see the paint, plenty of brilliant thick paint, boldly placed. All the best Linda.

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
