Whiskey Flat Wildflowers by Sheri Jones

Whiskey Flat Wildflowers by Sheri Jones
20x24 oil on canvas
I painted this today at Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas.  Thanks to all that stopped by.  It was a fun day in a beautiful gallery with a top selection of art.  She has 12 new larger paintings of mine, including this one.  I painted this with a palette knife and lots of colorful paint. The study I used for this was painted in the Whiskey Flat's area outside Ft. Worth. It was early morning and a cloudy day. This painting is available through Dutch Art Gallery

Blue by Design by Sheri Jones

Blue by Design by Sheri Jones
6x8 oil on Raymar canvas panel
This was painted on location on Country Road 1004, just outside of Glen Rose, Texas. We were in search of bluebonnets on some of the back roads and our friend steered us to this spot.  There are so many country roads to explore in this area. This one had great views all around us and a place I would love to return to soon. This was painted with a palette knife. It is available for purchase. $100.00

Cluster of Cedars by Sheri Jones

Cluster of Cedars by Sheri Jones
10 x 8 oil on canvas
This was created plein air from a location outside Acton Nature Center, Acton, Texas. My painting buddy, Jill Randall went to paint a sunset, but arrived early enough to paint one before. I was attracted to the bright light and deep shadows the late day sun did to the Cedar trees.
Finding a place to park the car and stand with a good view is a challenge. We found an old abandoned restaurant on top of the hill that was perfect for us. This painting is available for purchase.$100.00

End of Cripple Creek Road
8 x 10 oil on canvas
My friend, Jill Randall helped me take my paintings to town for my upcoming show. We both had the afternoon free and quickly decided we should go paint. She likes to paint outside as much as I do.   We found this spot a short drive from home. We saw inspiration all around us and plan to return soon.
