Rudbeckia with Some Oranges

More flowers but this time within a still life.

Three Oranges and a Banana

I'm liking the modernist approach I did with this simple still life.

Only Three Slices

Finally made it back; please excuse my absence as I took some time off due to having quests, travel and care giving.  But I hope to be back in the studio this week doing what I am meant to do-paint.

Still Life with Tulips and Oranges

This painting has lots of texture and color.  It comes from both a photographic reference and

from my imagination.  It has been finished with a satin, acrylic varnish. 

As always, thanks for looking!

Navels

I'm sorry its been so long since my last post but life intruded big time this last week.  Finally getting back in the studio today was a bit like heaven.  Thanks for looking.

Oranges in a Bowl

This bowl of oranges was taken from our table to the studio this morning to work as models.  After sketching them on the board that had been covered with the paint left from yesterday's session, I covered the oranges.  Then I started painting not to refer to them again.  This allows me to play.  Having the texture from the paint underneath really brings life to the painting.

Cyclemen and Oranges

This is the first cyclemen I have ever had and it was fascinating to watch the buds bloom.  They go from being pointed downward and over a day's time or so move upward and open.   I am following the directions I found on the internet about how to maintain it while it is dormant and I hope it will awaken for me in the late winter.

This painting went through many changes as I worked on it, off and on, since February.  It is one of the larger pieces I have started and have been working on instead of the smaller daily paintings. Also, I have not been as able to find as much time to get into the studio as I'd like.  Thank you for your patience.  And for looking.    

Flowers at the Lake

This painting is a larger piece.  Thanks for looking.

Hand Thrown Bowl & Oranges

I've had this bowl for many years and decided it was time for it to make it's debut as a prop.  Thanks for looking.

Breakfast Fruit

I apologize for not posting recently.  I have been involved in working on some larger pieces and when I am satisfied with them I'll post them to the blog and to Daily Paintworks.  I think that I'll do another using the same motif of breakfast fruit; maybe even as many pieces as the fruit will allow.  This 5x7 inch acrylic is painted on gessoed hardboard and is varnished. It can be purchased for $40.00 through my Daily Paintworks site.
