Bright

5"x7"
sold

THIS is why daily paintings are so important! I learned so much on this one, and it's not a subject or lighting style I ever would have tried otherwise!

Pink Zinnia

5"x7" 
sold

Pretty little still life. Zinnias move a surprising amount after being cut, it was rather a tricky one! I quite like the little dark green apothecary bottle though.

Moonlight

sold

At this point I think I'm painting the air itself! It helps that it's so humid. Makes everything more tangible, lol.

Gardenia

5"x7"

Something simple and beautiful. Gardenias are my favorite flower, but they're devilishly hard to paint!

Dahlias II

5"x7"


I brought some more dahlias in from the garden to paint! I'm really enjoying this approach to dailies, I'm even sketching in the large forms with a brush which is new for me, and feels wonderful.

The Berry Thicket

9"x12"
sold

The rabbit family who lives in the mass of honeysuckle across the road has expanded into the berry thicket by the driveway! The inhabitants of the thicket have been most agreeable about posing.
