Contemporary Impressionistic Portrait Original Oil Painting by Sheri Jones

Isla and Dusty

I am been doing a series of portraits inspired by family members. This is my great neice, Isla posing with her granddads pup, Dusty.  I loved the photo when my brother in law posted it and couldn't wait to paint it.   This painting was accepted in the Lake Granbury Art Association juried fall show.  The reception is scheduled for Friday, September 10 at 7.

It's in the Shadow

14x11 oil on linen 

I spied this house on my morning walk. It was the array of colors in the shadow that attracted me to paint this scene.  I've studied this green house for years knowing there was a painting in there somewhere.  The soft pink crape myrtles and roses are a nice contract to the soft greens.

Water Lily Garden

30x24 oil on Canvas

A visit to Clark Gardens in Weatherford, Texas inspired this painting. I painted on location and still have not finished with all the painting ideas from that trip.  It was a hot summer morning and the perfect place to set up my easel. I created a couple while there and use those as color studies. This was painted in the studio using brushes, palette knifes and layers and layers of colorful paint.

Contemporary Impressionistic Garden Koi Palette Knife Original Oil Painting by Sheri Jones

Koi Pond

9x12 oil on linen panel

I met up with 5 artist friends at the Chandor Gardens in Weatherford. It was a joyful morning painting with friends.  I let my blouse inspire the color of the water in my painting. There were reflections of the cloud indicating a soft blue. To keep algae down they paint the base of the pond black and dye the water.
