Aussie Portrait Oil Painting Dog Art Pet Portraits Australian Shepherd

Oil on canvas hardboard, 6" x 8"

Australian Shepherds are definitely easy on the eye and fun to paint for me as a dog admirer.  Their eyes are startling, yes, but what I really like are their folded ears which perk up when they are interested in something or someone.  I had a great time with the grays, whites, black, browns, and the overlapping of all of them in this piece.

Radish Family Oil Still Life Painting Vegetable Garden Organic Kitchen Art

Oil on hardboard, 10" x 8"

I liked the feeling of movement that I saw with the radish tails and their leafy tops in my arrangement of these fresh radishes.  I grow different types for a variety of colors and shapes.  It's a wonder to me how painting simple food subjects seems to be so satisfying.

Basset Fenced In Oil Painting Dog Art Pet Portraits Hound

Oil on canvas hardboard, 10" x 8"

This piece was painted from one of several photos I took of the wandering hound, Molly, when she was lost for a time from her home.  Here she is behind a neighbor's fence waiting for her family to fetch her.  She gave me her friendly expression, or maybe it was a pleading one to be let out.  Bassets are full of wonderful expressions and always interesting to me.

Sunflower Wave Oil Painting Flower Art Still Life Garden Wildflowers

Oil on canvas hardboard, 7" x 7"

I've been painting small studies of sunflowers for a larger still life painting with many sunflowers that I'm working on in my studio.  This was one of my favorites so far.  I love its energy and light as well as the large leaf shapes of the flower.

Avocado No.3 Oil Painting Vegetable Art Still Life Garden

Oil on hardboard panel, 8" x 6"

The flesh of an avocado is one of my favorite things to eat and it also makes for a rich subject to paint.  I delight in the color and the thick, creamy form that it makes inside of the skin.  Of course, the large pit remains a center of interest along with the flesh when I paint this fruit that tastes like a vegetable.  Yum!

Lacy Gladiolus Oil Painting Flower Sword Lilly Art Still Life Botanical Garden

Oil on canvas hardboard, 8" x 6"

This was my first home-grown Gladiolus and also my first painting of one.  I decided to paint the bloooms close-up and as more of a series of shapes in sunlight and shade rather than complete flowers.  This is what seemed to appeal to me as I observed them.  I may decide to paint them in more of a traditional manner also!  I didn't know that Glads are in the Iris family and are sometimes called Sword Lillies.

Golden Summer Oil Painting Dog Art Pet Portraits Golden Retriever

Oil on canvas hardboard, 5" x 7"

This little painting of a Golden's head backlit with bright sunlight was a fun piece to play with.  The shadows were colorful and exciting.  I painted them the way I saw them and am happy with it!  I'm always looking for subjects with great shadows.

Sonny Oil Painting Dog Art Pet Portraits Yorkie Yorkshire Terrier Silky

Oil on canvas hardboard, 8" x 6"

I wanted to capture this little guy's expression and his flowing locks of hair.  And I really had fun with his flipped-up tongue and tiny teeth.  Many of these terriers have an underbite but I don't think this one has.  Yorkies are bright-eyed and eager to please (if you don't spoil them too much!)  I know from exprience.
