Tulip Take-out
2013
charcoal drawing on paper
I've been taking a drawing class the last few months as I thought it would help advance my painting skills, specifically so I could draw rather than trace onto the canvas what I want to paint. This still life was set up so we could practice all of the skills we learned during the class.

Hidden
2011
10x8 inches
oil on board
It has been a long time since I have posted! I've been busy with painting classes and workshops and have many paintings started but none finished to post. So I will be catching up this week.
This painting was started during a plein air workshop at the botanical garden. The gazebo is well hidden by bushes and flowers.

Gluten Free PBJ
2011
12 x 12 inches
acrylic on board
I'm always amused when I see paintings of PBJ sandwiches. I always wonder if it was the artists lunch! But I have never seen a painting of a gluten free PBJ sandwich so I thought I would give it a try. Since I'm not a fast painter, it was my breakfast. :)

Urn with Red Flowers
2011
16 x 12 inches
Oil on canvas
The pic for this painting was actually taken a few years ago. I liked the shape of the urn on my neighbor's porch and how the sun lit up the flowers. My painting instructor thought this would be good practice for me to improve on my perception of values. "Squint and compare!"

The Road Home
2010
20x20 inches
acrylic on canvas
As I was driving around in farm area taking pictures for potential paintings (more barns!), I discovered that country roads often just become someones driveway. The sun was just perfect, lighting the side of the house and trees and making long afternoon shadows on a fall day.
