Desert Bloom by Sheri Jones

Desert Bloom by Sheri Jones
12 x 16 oil on raymar canvas panel
This painting was inspired by a photo I took in the Big Bend area. On Monday I had jury duty and I sat in a courtroom all morning. I started this painting before I left and all I wanted to do was to get back to my studio to finish it. I was released after 2:00 and raced home. This explosion of color is a result of me being bottled up. The paint was flying!
This painting is available for purchase.

Massy Ferguson by Sheri Jones

Massy Ferguson by Sheri Jones
8 x 10 oil on canvas
This old work horse was painted at the M&J Lavender Farm during the festival this past weekend. It was the most colorful thing around, so I had to paint it. I parked myself in the shade and painted away.
We were assigned different farms, but were given the option to visit all participating farms. This was one of the other options and it was one of my favorites. It was right in the middle of the hill country with views all around. The festival was created to celebrate the final harvest and
end of the season.
