This is the Japan Challenge and all proceeds from the paintings will be donated to helping the victims of Japan. I have chosen the Japan Red Cross to receive the money from this painting, should it sell. Please consider this and remember those so very unfortunate ones in Japan, and how blessed we are here.

These small paintings on the gesso board are very nice for setting on one of the small decorative table top easels. They are about 1/8th inch thick. This might be pretty sitting on someones desk to brighten it up a bit! Or an end table in your living room.

Grandmother's Hydrangea - SOLD



Grandmother's Hydrangea
Oil on 6"x6" gesso board
This painting is SOLD


I have always thought it looked so hard to paint a hydrangea and never dared to try it, until now. I recently saw a good instructional video for just that. I gave it a try and came to find out that it isn't hard at all. The leaves were the biggest challenge. Hydrangeas always remind me of my Grandmother Tisdale. She had them growing all down one side of her house in Memphis, long ago.

The Rose - SOLD

This little painting was done for the DPW (Daily Paintworks) Challenge. I have not done anything like a rose for well over 30 years.! So it needs some, uh, refining. Not quite happy with it, but I am going to leave it as it is, for now.  For information about the DPW see the below website.

Blue Bowl and Clementines

Blue Bowl and Clementines
Oil on canvas (*See below)4 1/2"x6"
$15, free shipping
Pay with PayPal or Check
Please visit my Etsy Shop HERE


*This painting is done on a piece of canvas pad, which is artist canvas, but no support, just the flat canvas. It could be cut to a 4"x6" to fit that size frame and be a very cute painting for decorating. 1/2 inch off of the bottom would work just fine.
Just add a little color! This little painting was done using only three colors, cobalt blue, cadmium orange and white.
