Mountain Wildflower Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 6x8" Oil Painting
Another little painting from the Smoky Mountains.
It was a beautiful day, and not long after this hike, we had a picnic. Yummy sandwiches on home made bread, fresh fruit, delicious apple cake from the orchard, and a beautiful view. Life at it's best!
Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Small Sunflower Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Oil
Sunflowers and farmhouses, the perfect pairing!
It is a cold, gray day, here in the mountains, and sunflowers are the perfect way to brighten things up.
Both sunflowers and farmhouses, are not uncommon, here in the mountains. It's hard not to smile when I look at sunflowers.
Yesterday, we drove over the mountains to Gatlinburg. I am happy to report that things are looking up there. Spring is taking over, renewal is everywhere. Yes, there are still signs of the devastating fires from last fall, but the mood is upbeat and the tourists are there.
Have a wonderful day!

A Chunky, Textured, Colorful Piece of Art That Makes Me Smile, Abstract Landscape, 8x8x3" Oil Painting
Today is gray, foggy and damp, so I decided to post the most fun painting I could find.
I painted it on a 8x8x3" canvas, so even the shape is unique. It's chunky and cute and it resides on a bookshelf , where it brightens the whole room. I cannot help but smile each time I look at it. The canvas was a mistake. I did not realize how deep it was when I ordered it. What could I possibly do with it? Well, for this painting, I think it is perfect! Have a fantastic day!

Mountain Wildflowers, Floral Landscape, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 8x6" Oil on Panel
Last fall, we took a ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was a crisp, sunny day and my camera was busy clicking away.
Purchase here It's hard to go wrong with a blue and yellow painting.....it just shouts "Cheerful". The background was painted with a brush, but I used a palette knife on the flowers and grasses. That's when it started to be really fun!
I feel like I was able to capture the feel of the day......I hope it made you smile!

Tropical Landscape Painting, Palm Tree Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 8x16" Original Oil Painting
Another piece inspired by the Florida Keys, and one of those glorious sunsets!
I remember this spot well. We were at an open air restaurant on the water's edge. Very laid back with this beautiful scene before us. When I say we were on the water's edge, I mean where the restaurant stopped, (no walls, just a roof) the water started! How could we not enjoy our meal? I don't remember what I ate, or the name of the place, but I do remember it was on the ocean side on Marathon Key. If I could find it again, I would go in a minute, just to experience the atmosphere and enjoy a glass of wine. Sigh! Carol Schiff www.CarolSchiffStudio.etsy.com www.CarolSchiffStudio.blogspot.com |
