Pear Orchard Road Study, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Pear Orchard Road Study

9x12 oil on wood panel

I created this after painting outside at this location.  I was planning my demo at Dutch Art Gallery and wanted to work out the colors and design. Practicing on this ahead of time and becoming familiar with the scene helps when painting in front of a group. I changed things up a bit in the demo.

Autumn on the Ranch, New Contemporary Plein Air Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Autumn On the Ranch

7x14 oil on canvas

This was a view of a ranch from the road side where I set up to paint. There are views in all direction and there is a place to pull off the road.  I can find nice views I want to paint, but there is not always a place to park.  This is just one of the challenges of a plein air painter.

Sheri Jones Painting Demo at Dutch Art Gallery

ARTIST DEMONSTRATION | Sheri Jones | Palette Knife Technique
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23RD | 10AM TO 2PM

Come join us in the gallery as artist Sheri Jones demonstrates her signature palette knife technique. Sheri says, “Painting outside surrounded by all the color is a place I love to be.” Painting outside on location allows her to see more color and depth than working from photos alone, but plein air painting comes with its own unique set of challenges. The light is in constant motion changing the landscape minute by minute. The palette knife allows her to get more paint on faster and block in large, base shapes quickly so she can capture the scene before her. This is an informal setting, so drop by anytime between 10am and 2pm to visit with Sheri.

Spider Lily Blooms, New Contemporary Floral Painting by Sheri Jones

Spider Lily Blooms

20x16 oil on raymar canvas panel

My garden had more of these bloom  I've ever seen. I had to stop and take the time to paint them. I started on a dark canvas and carved out the flower, adding color and texture to the background.  They are a welcome sign of fall and cooling temperatures.

Good Morning Fly Over, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Good Morning Fly Over

11x14 oil on canvas panel

I recently visited Lake Texoma and took my kayak. I took it out in the early morning to take advantage of mild conditions. The heron birds were nesting all around and would take off as I approached the shore.  Its was a great time to disconnect and enjoy the scenery.

Snow on the Mountain Flowers, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Snow on the Mountain Flowers
8x10 oil on canvas
When you see fields and fields of white flowers you pull over to snap a few photos. They bloom in late August and are a sign cooler weather is on the way. It is the same with milkweed and purple thistle flowers. I read this from my former biology teacher's post recently.  I didn't know this and will pay closer attention next year.
