SAND PRINCESS BUILDING HER CASTLE

10 X 8 OIL ON PANEL  SOLD
This figurative oil beach scene  was the second demonstration I painted for the Foley workshop.  I warned everyone that the fore-shortening of the legs would not be an easy task, but they were all ready  for the challenge.  I wanted to keep the painting loose and fresh still using some of those lively grays.

Also today,I was honored to find out that I have been juried into OIL PAINTERS OF AMERICA
and WOMEN PAINTERS OF THE SOUTH EAST

PINK FLOWERS WITH A SIMPLE WELCOME

10 x 8 OIL ON PANEL    SOLD
This floral still life is the one hour demo I painted for my workshop yesterday.  In this painting, I wanted to show how grays can really be lively and pop your colors, too.  Wow, did I ever have a bunch of hard working artists...they were at the easel painting  a half hour early and through most of the lunch hour!  We had a lot of fun and hopefully learned a few things, too...  Remember..squint, put those darks in and work on the entire canvas!!

BLUE POTTERY VASE WITH APPLES AND LEMONS

11 X 14 OIL ON  CANVAS
This is the first demo I painted in the  workshop this week.  I still see a couple of little things to change.  Also I am thinking this still life  setup might be interesting with a white cloth behind it... a little more dramatic, although  I  am pretty happy with the blues.
The art center in Fairhope has wonderful studios and I had a really fabulous bunch of artists  to work with.
There may still be an opening in the Foley workshop next week so give them a call,  as it will be my last one for a while.
