Young Fawn

Oil Painting Wildlife Portrait Animals Deer

Oil ACEO, 3.5" x 2.5"

This was one of my very small ACEO-size paintings that I did from a few years ago.  I know I learned many things from painting so small and remember these paintings fondly.  I love the design of the "dots" on fawns.

Chosen One

Oil Painting Horse Pet Portrait Equine Art Farm Animals

Oil on canvas, 12" x 9" x 3/4"

I called this painting "Chosen One" because I imagined this horse as being the favorite among his mates at the stables where he lives. He has a gentle and confident presence about him.

Schnauzer Portrait

Watercolor Painting Dog Art Pet Portrait Animals

Watercolor on bristol board 12" x 10".

Watercolor reacts differently on bristol board than it does on watercolor paper. It produced an interesting effect when I painted this dashingly handsome miniature schnauzer.  His keen eyes are shadowed by those thick, bushy eyebrows.  I enjoy painting these salt and pepper beauties.

Lemon Wrap

Oil Painting Still Life Art Citrus Fruit

Oil on gallery-wrapped canvas, 8" x 8" x 3/4"

This is the second in a series of lemons/fruit wrapped in tissue. In this one, I "spun the color wheel" which I feel added more drama along with more movement of lines and shapes.
