Dogwood Painting, Flower Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 6x8 Oil painting on panel

YES! I am still painting flowers and lovin' it. This one gave me lots of trouble, but in the end, I think I pulled it off. It is not my usual painting, so I would love to hear your input.

NFS

I call this my semi impressionist, semi abstracted piece. I painted with oil and added lots of medium to make the colors translucent. Of course, I added all my favorite hues, whether I saw them or not.

I decided to reuse a panel with a not so perfect painting on it, but instead of sanding it down, I allowed all the texture from the previous painting to show through. I like this idea and have used it several times since. This one was all about trial and error, but, in the end.....it made me feel good!

Weeds Can Be Beautiful,Thistle Still Life Study, Daily Painter, Small Oil Painting, SOLD

This small oil painting is a tribute to thistles. The lowly thistle, thought to be a weed, in my eyes, a brilliant floral beauty.

SOLD

I photographed this thistle while taking a summer walk in the valley. Armed with my image, I painted it in oil, with lots of texture to suggest the spikey flower. Some of the texture comes from my use of the palette knife, and some of it was applied direct to the canvas. The sides of the canvas are finished, allowing it to be hung with or without a frame.

This is a picture of me, doing my favorite thing!

derwater wonderland, Coral Reel Seascape, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Palette Knife Painting, SOLD

I am still reliving my recent trip to Key Largo in my paintings. I think this is number five or six in the series I call "Coral Reef".

SOLD

While in Key Largo we went out seven miles to the coral reef in a glass bottom boat. I got really sea sick when they powered down over the reef and did not enjoy it as much as I would have liked to.

But, I kept my eyes on the reef as much as I could, and took some photos. I did love the trip out and the trip back. I could not take my eyes off the stunning aqua and blue waters.
