Pets

I enjoy painting animals and I find them easier to paint than some things with their definite blocks of color.  I say that but that doesn't mean it's easy. I find that people really enjoy viewing paintings of animals too.  This beautiful cat belongs to our co-op owner, actually this is one of two cats that live at the co-op.  The dog belongs to a man I attended school with, he posted it on Facebook and I loved the image and he gave me permission to paint it.  The cat is 8" x 8" and I'll be taking it along to sell at the Northminster Art Fair next Saturday.  The dog is wet but it's available if you're interested. It is 8" x 10" and both are oil. 

So good of you to come by

Flowers flowers flowers

Hi! I am a flower painting fool lately. Lol. This one is oil on a 10" x 20" stretched gallery canvas.  

Also I am framing and getting ready for the Northminster Fine Art Show on February 7th on Compton Rd. This is a wonderful juried show and I feel honored to be included.  I paint a lot of small 4" x 4"'s for the show, everyone has room for a little painting, right? The second photo I have posted shows a few of those little paintings framed.

Thanks for visiting me!

New camera

Hi everyone and happy new year! I purchased a new camera, another Canon Powershot but I wore out my other one.  It came today and I shot this photo, thinking I'm lovin it!  This is oil on a 6" x 8" canvas. Painting some smaller ones for an upcoming show in February. 

Back on EBay, check out the paintings I added.  Haven't quite figured out how to add a link from my iPad,  you can enter "Pask" in the search bar.

Good to see you!

Merry Christmas

Hi Friends, this is the painting I used for my Christmas cards this year.  I enjoy painting the image I use for my cards each year.  Because I won't be mailing one to all of you I wanted to share it on here

and wish you all a very Merry Christmas.  Have a safe holiday and I'll be back soon. 

Still life

Hi Friends, I have worked on this painting off and on for a few months. The background color changed a few times. Lately I have been enjoying painting lighter backgrounds, I like the softness. I like the idea of lost edges blending into the background. This is oil on a 11" x 14" canvas. 

I uploaded a few images to FineArt America tonight, you can order prints or cards using my images but I haven't figured it out completely.  I ordered some cards to check out the quality of them, I'll let you know.

Also just a reminder that I have a collection of paintings on my website for only $50, the link is to your right.

So great to see you

Christmas is coming

Hi Everyone, I actually did a bit of Christmas shopping today, seems to come quicker each year.

 I added a few new paintings to my website and I grouped one collection together and those paintings are only $50 with $5 shipping. The link to my website is to your right.  Plenty of time to get something for Christmas or just for yourself because you deserve it.  Thanks for your visit

Fresh Fruit

Hi there! Sorry I haven't posted the last few weeks, we just came from back from a stay in Siesta Key. So great to get away from the cold, I'll have to hang onto those warm memories to get me through our long winter. 

This little painting is a 5" x 7" canvas painted in oils. I picked up this grapefruit in back of our condo in Siesta Key and these little orange fruits looked just like oranges to me though tiny.  Painting the leaves was the most fun.  Do you know what the tiny little orange fruits are? 

So great to be back
