Basking in Sun

20x20 oil on canvas

These beauties seemed to take pleasure in the warmth of the garden. I styled this after a small study I did in the garden last summer.  It is filled with texture and eye popping color.

Red Hot Geraniums

New 12x12 oil on wood cradle board

My garden is a great source of inspiration. I love planting geraniums in this clay pot just for the color alone.  The great shadows are an added bonus.  Painting on a hard service with the palette knife is a great way to build up color and texture. Painted with a joy in my heart.

Poppies in the Sunrise

10x20 oil on canvas

This painting was inspired from a garden on a very busy road. When I saw the bright red poppies, I turned around.  This garden also had roses, peonies and small yellow flowers. Add all that and the rising sun was a painting in the makings.   Using the palette knife and carving this scene out was a fun exercise.

Painted Meadow Demo

14x11 Oil on wood panel

I created this as a demo for the Lake Granbury Art Association. I used my plein air sketch, a preliminary drawing and photo to create this.   I discussed plein air painting and the use of the palette knife.  I changed the format from landscape to portrait. It was a fun night with a great group of artist.

Painted Meadow

8x10 oil on linen panel

I have plans to do a painting demo at the Lake Granbury Art Association on Monday, May 10th. I will be demonstrating my palette knife process and talking about plein air painting. There is also a workshop coming up on Saturday, May 15th 9-4. Let me know if you would be interested in either and I can provide more info.

The indian paint brush and queen annes lace were a sight I found at Hunter's Park on Lake Granbury. I was so excited to find this combo I returned the next day with paints in hand. This was a quick study and will provide my inspiration for the demo.

Spring Blues 9x12 oil on canvas

This is an older plein air painting that I reworked recently.  Sometimes it takes a while to figure out what a painting needs. This is from the High Hope Ranch in Glen Rose.  They always have fields and fields of wild flowers.
