Tomato Fiesta - SOLD

Oil on linen board
This painting is SOLD


This is an original oil painting of three summer tomatoes on a Lemon Grass Fiesta plate. This is the first time I have ever painted on linen and I like it so much that I may never go back to cotton canvas. It's SO nice!! I love summer tomatoes!!

Below is the painting as it progressed.

8x8 Oil on Gesso Board

I'm working some more with still lifes. I really enjoyed doing this one.

I hope you like it too. I am anxious to get to the next one. I already

have it picked out. Funny, looking at my paintings, I think I need to 

on to some different colors. They are all the same. Guess I like those colors!

Just for Fun - SOLD

Just for Fun!

     12x12 Oil on Stretched Canvas

      

I do so hate having paint left on my palette and it ends up dry and hard. Especially when I pay $25 for a little  tiny tube of paint. I see $$ signs every time I put out even a little half pea size blob of paint to use. And some colors are just plain expensive, especially the cadmiums, but oh they are so nice!! So sometimes when I have some paint left over, I will just do something like this painting, just so it doesn't go to waste. It usually works well because the colors are already complimentary from using them on a single painting. I have a couple more of these that I may post later. It's fun too!!This painting is on gallery wrapped, stretched canvas, and finished on all sides and ready to hang. This is the kind of painting that is often displayed without a frame.

This is the earlier Limes that I painted but with some changes to the background color. It is now a warmer and deeper color. Better, I hope.

This is one of my first efforts at loosening up and painting faster. Not too bad, I think....

This is a different kind of painting for me. Just a fun one. No real place. Yes, a bit surreal, I think. This painting is finished on all sides and can be hung as is, or framed if you like.
