Flowers and Teapot

This is a 5" x 7" impressionistic oil painting.
 It is similar to the painting I posted two days ago except this is bigger.
I used one palette knife for the entire painting.

Red Pears

 I used wax medium and a lot of paint to get textured pears.
This is a vibrant painting that stands out from a distance.

Citrus Squeezer

If these items were crystals I would title the painting Aventurine, amethyst, and citrine. I don't know why I ended up with the crazy color vibrations that I did, perhaps the stones were guiding me. 
This is an 8" x 10" oil painting.

Summer Recipe

Summer fun in the kitchen. I was very inspired by these ingredients and the reflections.
As I was painting, I could smell the cake baking!

Honey and Melon

Honey, melon, and what else? Are we waiting for a recipe, or do we create one?
Painting and cooking are similar.

Lilacs And Tangerines

   I had a lot of fun using a variety of palette knives to create this oil painting.  I worked from dark to light on a prepared panel.  My favorite part is the lilac petals!

Flowers And Tea

A time to reflect while enjoying a cup of tea. 
 This painting reminds us to slow down and enjoy the moment.
  As the new year approaches we need to be mindful of this!

Dalias And Pears

Going through all of my 2015 paintings and discovered this!  I tend to forget about my oil paintings as I keep them in the barn.  This painting has a new year feel to it!

Rejuvinating Still Life

Lately I have been experimenting with reverse glass painting.  This is a still life painted in oil.  I have discovered that the foreground must be painted first!
