God Loves the Color Red

Hi, This is oil on a 8 x 10 stretched canvas. I wanted this to feel like a cloudy rainy day. I used grayed down colors for everything but my little gal. I wanted the red umbrella to pop and I used a palette knife to lay it in. When my little gal went out to walk in the rain God loved her red umbrella so much that the sky radiated and reflected that glorious red. Just what I thought about after I finished it, crazy?

Pink Lilies

Hello there, I painted this from a set up a while back. I started by putting a dark color on the canvas and then wiping out the area where I would paint my lilies with spirits. I painted in the lilies and then went over the dark background once again. This is oil on a 8 x 10 stretched canvas.

Geraniums in Terra Cotta

Hi, I painted this a few months ago but I don't think I ever posted it, hopefully not. This is oil on a 16 x 20 stretched canvas and I painted it from a set up. You can probably tell by now that I love red geraniums.

Shore Birds

Hi there! I took the reference photo for this painting last winter in Florida. I really don't know much about birds, I thought these were a type of sea gull but I am not sure. I loved the two little guys on the left that were looking right at me, and I love their little knees, lol. I like paintings that evoke some feeling from the viewer and hopefully this makes you smile. This is oil on a 6 x 6 Raymar panel.

My Christmas Card

Hi there, I hope you are enjoying the holiday season, I can't believe Christmas is so close. The last 4 years I have painted the image for my Christmas cards, sometimes I order them printed on cards and other times I print photos of the painting and buy the type of card where you insert them. This is the image I painted for this years card, I painted it from a set up on a 8 x 10 canvas. My husband really wanted me to paint a duck decoy, I added the ornaments to hopefully make it feel like a Christmas card. I had shot gun shells in the set up too but wasn't feeling them, lol.

Watching the Girls Go By

Hi there! This is painted on a 11 x 14 canvas painted from a reference photo I took last summer. I loved the little girl with the tube. The sea gull wasn't there but I thought it added some humor to it.

Starting work on a painting for a show called "Red" in February. I like the theme it really leaves it open to so many possibilities.

Painting of Ellen- Wip

Hi there, I haven't worked on this since Monday but I wanted to show you where it is. I painted this Monday with my group. We had a beautiful model named Ellen sit for us. I want to do a bit more work to it but I'm looking at it for now. May work on some of the skin tones, maybe lighten the eye in shadow? This is oil a 11 x 14 linen panel.
