Thanks for looking.

Hardy Mums

These mums were from potted ones that I planted last year.   Pots of mums are available everywhere for purchase in the fall.  I made sure they were the hardy variety and now the plants are huge and full of blooms.  Wonder what color should I choose for this fall?

Apple Slices

I might enter this painting in an upcoming show so therefore, its not available for sale at the moment.  I'll change its availability when its status changes.

Mason Jar Flowers

This painting came about in two ways.  The flowers in a mason jar, table top and background came from a photo that I took while eating at a very nice café called Ike and Jane's.  I felt it needed something to balance it to the left and my imagination added the plate and apple.

Life intervened but I'm back in the studio still working on pushing my efforts to be more expressive.

The "Art Girls", at our critique on Friday night, said to make some changes and I did.  Here's the result which I like much better.

Sunflowers on the Blue Chest

I met with the "art girls" last night and they approved this experiment with my working toward abstraction.  I will post another that they agreed with me, needed to be pushed further.  Thanks for looking.

I am now able to walk on the broken foot but only with a boot but that feels wonderful.

Back to Back Sunflowers

I want to work on pushing my artwork to a more stylized, abstract rendering.  I also want to do this with flowers and so you will be seeing a few paintings of sunflowers done until I am more satisfied.  Thanks for looking.
