Landscape with Flowers, Cone flower painting, daily painting, small oil painting, 9x12" Oil SOLD

I was going through my reference photo files, looking for inspiration, when I found an image from several years ago.  It's funny how I can be totally unimpressed with an image, and then one day, WOW!  I just have to paint it.

SOLD



I tried to remember everything I learned at my workshop with Elio Camacho a few months ago.   I tried to concentrate on color relations and brushwork.

 Another priority.....not overworking the piece.  I felt happy when I finished, usually a good sign

Landscape Oil Painting, "Old Smoky", Palette Knife Painting, Small Oil Painting

 We lived in Asheville for three years, and there was nothing I enjoyed more that sitting on my deck and enjoying the view.

Asheville is surrounded by the Smoky Mountains and the Blue Ridge Mountains, and I am unsure which range is seen here.  

The mountains change from day to day and minute to minute as the earth rotates.  The color of the season and the light or shadows put on a constantly changing view.

This 9x12" painting is worked with a palette knife and has a textured finish.

Trio of Marsh Landscape Paintings, Commission Your Painting, Small Oil Paintings, Daily Painting

 

 These are three 6x8" marsh landscapes from Amelia Island in northern Florida.  They were commissioned pieces that brought back happy memories for me.

Many artists do not enjoy commission work.  The idea you see in your mind may not be the same vision your client has, which makes it difficult.  I however, enjoy the challenge.

I think this has a slightly "romantic"feel about it, quite different than my usual pieces.  I kept the brushwork and the colors softer than my usual works.

When I first started painting, there were so many rules to learn.  I never knew what the finished piece would look like and usually started without a specific feel in mind.  After all these years, I am finally feeling a little control in my work, but, oh so much more to learn!

I know for me, this is the appeal of painting, always trying to challenge myself and escalate my skills.  Very frustrating and also very rewarding and ALWAYS interesting!

Have a great day!

Small Landscape Painting, Palette Knife Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 6x8" Oil

Did you ever have that feeling, that you just want to get away?  Away from the hustle and bustle of life, the job, the town, .......just everything?

This little painting, is my idea of that perfect get away.  It's on a quiet mountain road, snuggled up under the trees, but not so far from civilization that I would not want to be there alone.  In other words.....PERFECT!

Oh, to waken to birds chirping, and leaves falling softly to the ground.

I have not added this piece to my Etsy site yet, so feel free to contact me here, if you are interested in purchasing.

Have a wonderful day!
