Blossom


8 x 8 Oil on Archival Board
 
SOLD

An adorable commission...One with very large ears and a mask like a bandit.  Blossom is the first commission I'm able to post because she was given at Thanksgiving with a companion painting.  I have one more I'm able to post and for the rest I have to wait until after Christmas.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Now on to Christmas!!

Bedford Farmland



8 x 8 Oil on Gessobord
 
SOLD

I've been busily doing Holiday commissions and haven't been able to post any of them until after Christmas gift giving, so meanwhile here's an older painting that I have always loved.  Our Fall has been less than spectacular this year, but is still always my favorite season. 

This has been a wonderful commission season so far this year, and I am so thankful!  I've got 9 paintings drying and one on the easel.  If you'd like me to paint a commission of your animals, landscapes, etc., please get them to me by Thanksgiving.

Have a great weekend, Everyone!!

Early Morning Plein Air Study


12 x 6 Oil on Archival Board

Our house faces the west so usually we get wonderful sunsets over lake and don't see much of the sunrise colors.  One morning last week though, we had a spectacular, colorful early sky.  As soon as I raised the blinds, I rushed to get my little compact easel and tried to capture it in paint.  The colors are so fleeting that I was thrilled I was able to get it so quickly.  It was gone in an instant...
