OIL PAINTING OF CHINA CUP AND PLATE

COFFEE AND DESSERT PLEASE
12 X 12 OIL ON GALLERY WRAPPED CANVAS
SOLD
I said this one to many times over the holidays. I need to practice saying "coffee only please". (please please don't eat another piece of cake, I have already gained my 7 pounds of holiday weight!!!)
This was the demonstration painting I did yesterday for my workshop. My husband gave me this china for one of our anniversaries (uh-oh, can't remember which one). I really love the pattern but I paint it more than I use it for serving as it should be hand washed, and who has time for that!

OIL PAINTING OF RED APPLES ON BLUE PLATE

REALLY RED APPLES ON BLUE PLATE
7 X 5 OIL ON PANEL
I guess you have figured out by now that I like painting red fruits and vegetables on this blue plate. They are such intense colors that when put adjacent to each other you automatically get rich color.
Today I am teaching my workshop at Art Alley in Gulf Shores, Alabama. I am really looking forward to getting out of the studio and being around some other artist. I will post some of my demos this week
.

WATERCOLOR OF REALLY RED HOT ZINNIAS

RED HOT ZINNIAS SOLD
9 X 12 WATERCOLOR
This watercolor sketch was done on yupo paper. Boy is it slick!
I play around with watercolors every once in a while. They are a whole different story in art technique. The nice thing about this paper is that you can just totally wash out areas that you don't like. I did that a lot. I really have to work in watercolors everyday for two weeks before I get into the flow of it. Anyway, I am quiet happy with this one. It still looks fresh even tho it was labored over.

PAINTING OF YELLOW SUNFLOWERS

THREE SUNFLOWERS  
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL SOLD
As I have mentioned before, painting flowers is generally harder than you would think, particularly sunflowers. I struggled with this one a bit but I think I got it working. As yellow is such a high value color getting the shadows right on the petals can be tricky.

OIL PAINTING OF SEAGULLS AT THE BEACH

JUST HANGING OUT BY THE SEASIDE SOLD
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL
These birds pretty much have the beach to themselves these last couple of days as it is cold and rainy here for a change. They are very entertaining to watch running in and out of the ocean surf. Beware.... feed them a little of your lunch and they are likely to snatch the whole sandwich right out of your hands!!
