Orange Pieces Standing Watercolor Painting Still Life Art Fruit Kitchen Citrus

Watercolor on paper, 8" x 6".

Placing orange slices against a window is one way to get them to glow with sunlight and I decided to arrange this group on the sill of an octagon-shaped window. The colors were glorious and just what I wanted. I liked having a "leaner" in there also.

Bananas 'N Grapes Watercolor Painting Still Life Art Fruit Kitchen

Watercolor on paper, 8" x 8".

I've continued with another food painting because I'm having fun with them. In this one, I loved the way the watercolors glowed in the bananas and red grapes and also in their their cast shadows. It's a simple arrangement viewed from above and I was happy with the rhythm of of the shapes and values playing off of each other.

Snaps and Blueberries Oil Painting Still Life Kitchen Art Russel Wright China Gingersnaps Food

Oil on Raymar panel, 6" x 8".

A few of my favorite things to eat - gingersnaps and blueberries. These crispy cookies have a very strong ginger flavor and they look good in my shallow yellow bowl I think. The blueberries are eye-candy too and are the stars in the painting. I've been having some fun painting food recently!

Red and Yellow Bells Watercolor Painting Still Life Art Vegetables Gardens Farmers Market

Watercolor on paper, 10" x 8".

Bell peppers aren't available at the Farmers' Market yet this year; these were painted from last summer's visit. I was interested in their shapes in the gray cardboard containers as seen from above. I built up their colors and form with layered watercolor glazes and was happy with how the peppers eventually "popped up" to be seen by the viewer.

Red Orchids Oil Painting Still Life Art Flowers Botanical Gardens

Oil on clayboard panel, 13" x 9".

These very exotic orchids were for sale at our local lawn and garden show this spring. While I was taking photos of them, the vendor joked that she should charge for each photo! She must have had many people admiring them with their cameras. I loved the allure of their color and movement and I had never seen such long, thick petals on an orchid. I used thick paint for many of the edges of the petals to add emphasize to their forms. The leaves and stems were interesting too and added so much to the finished painting.

Bulldog Puppy Tug Oil Painting Dog Pet Art Animals English Bulldog

Oil on Canvas Board, 7" x 9".

I photographed a sweet, little English Bulldog pup playing with a young boy. The puppy went from a sleepy youngster to a determined bulldog with a plan of action in a matter of seconds when he saw the boy walking by. So cute! I hoped to capture his expression and adventure in paint.

Tabby Kitten in Red Tulips Oil Painting Gray Tabby Cat Pet Art Flowers Animals Botanical

Oil on Canvas, 8" x 10" x 3/4".

The warm colors of the red/yellow tulip backround worked nicely with this grey tabby kitty subject I think. Truthfully, the fun of it was in creating thick strokes of paint and "feathering" them out with a long, thin rigger brush to create the striped pattern and fluffy look of the cute kitten. The 3/4" sides are painted so framing is optional!
