Florida Landscape | Small Oil Painting | Daily Painting | Palm Grove by Carol Schiff | 8x6" Oil | SOLD

I was on a photo shoot one late afternoon, walking though wetlands and knee high grasses.  I was getting a little anxious as the wildlife and creepy crawlies get more active as the sun goes down.  When I came home, I found several reference photos that I was interested in painting, which made it all worth while.

I liked the way the early evening light was hitting these palms, turning them from gray to gold.  This is a little study for a much larger piece that I am interested in trying.  Hopefully, I can get to it soon.

Floral Landscape Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Coneflower Painting, 12x16" Original Oil

I seem to be stuck....painting coneflowers!  It could be worse.

Purchase here
325 + shipping
also available as giclee print

I have been fascinated by coneflowers (echincea) every since I first saw them in the Blue Ridge Mountains.  First, I tried to grow them.  Not such good luck.  My thumb is only green when I paint.

It's not that they are difficult to grow, but they must be deadheaded.  Since I am only in North Carolina for a few weeks at a time, I usually would fine brown flowers.  Before they could bloom again, I would be gone.

News from Carol Schiff Studio!

 Hello all!  It has been very busy here at Carol Schiff Studio and I have some exciting news to share with you.

I have recently opened a site on a wonderful handmade marketplace called GoImagine.com.  What makes this site different, is that they donate 100% of their profits to needy children.  No billionaire CEO's or stockholders to pay off, just maker's selling their products.  

My expenses are much lower on this site, and I am passing that on to my buyer's with lower prices.  Everybody wins!

I hope you will stop bye for a visit:  https://goimagine.com/carols-original-painting/.  I add new listings daily.

Rustic Mountain Landscape, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Palette Knife Landscape, 6x8" Oil on Panel

A view of one of the more popular sites on the Blue Ridge Parkway......Water Rock Knob.

Purchase Here

This is an extremely textured artwork.  I enjoy texture in some of my work, and I may have gotten a little carried away, on this piece.  Or maybe not!  I like it and hopefully someone else will too.

Art is such a personal decision.  There are many rules to learn, as a student artist, but, after you learn the rules, you also learn when you can bend them.

Everybody has dreams, and this tropical landscape painting is one of mine.  When I was growing up in Ohio, on the cold, below zero mornings, as I hopped out of bed, I had this image in my mind.

With the severe winters we have been having, I am sure lots of people have the same dream.  I have to admit...I have never second guessed my decision to move to Florida many, many years ago.  Well, maybe a little in the middle of a hurricane!

I hope you enjoy this tropical landscape painting which is a scene from Jupiter Island, Florida.

Fall Landscape, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, One Last Autumn Painting, 6x8" Oil on Canvas

I know, I know!  By now, you are sick and tired of hearing me go on about fall in the mountains!  I promise, this is my last little autumn painting.

Purchase Here

I am trying to bring additional color, and different color into my art.  This time of year is perfect!  I tend to be a cool hue kind of girl, so inspiration is easy with fall colors everywhere.

Hmmmm!  I think I could become fond of the "other" side of the color wheel.  In any case, change is always a good thing.

Feeling Orange,
