Watching Seagulls

Watching Seagulls

15 x 15

oil on board

Today's painting is one I actually started yesterday. I was drawn to the beautiful color of the sky on this reference photo, and I also liked the lady's hat. Just something simple like that can inspire a painting. Watching wildlife of any kind is a pleasure for me, so seagull watching would be fun also.

Started this painting, thought I would just put in the background and block it all in for tomorrow... but it all went together rather well, so kept painting and managed to finish it tonight. Ballerina's are so graceful and pretty no matter what they are doing. This painting is for sale for $85.00 and includes free shipping in the Continental USA.

Aspen Glen Visitors, Deer

Aspen Glen Visitors

oil on board

This painting took two days to paint because my painting schedule was interrupted. I liked the unusual bending and crooked shape of several aspen trees in my reference photo. Since I had to photograph this painting right after I finished painting, the whites are brighter here, and the colors are not as vivid as they are in the actual painting. This painting was accidentally painted on one of my scrap hardboard boards, it is a bit of a trapezoid (not square or rectangle) but with clever framing will look like a rectangle. because of this, it has been discounted to sell for $50.00.

This is a richly textural painting depicting the glory of hollyhocks. There is nothing so splendid as standing in the midst of a garden of hollyhocks! They completely surround you with blooms well past your head. This painting is for sale for $250.00 and includes free shipping in the Continental USA.

I have painted a smaller version of a hollyhock too! This White Hollyhock painting has lots of rich texture and an interesting composition. The two paintings go well together also!

Decisions

Oil on Board

Decided to venture away from the animal paintings for a day, and try some paintings of the human variety. Living out west I am always on the look out for ranch hands and cowboys to paint. I liked this reference photo because their point of interest is off the canvas, and it leaves you wondering what the 'decision' is about.  This painting is for sale for $100.00 and includes free shipping in the Continental USA.
