Country Cabin

Oil Painting Art Landscape Arkansas Farm

Oil on canvas, 8" x 10".

Painting this cozy cabin tucked away in rural America was a study in using a very limited range of colors.  I liked the color notes that I mixed and applied in this one.  It feels soft and welcoming.

Autumn Light

Oil Painting Still Life Art Flowers Glass Vase

Oil on canvas, 8" x 10".

This arrangement of fall colors and a faceted glass vase was the latest still life I worked from in my artists' group class.  We learned a lot from this one and had a great time too!

Pumpkin Gourd

Oil Painting Still Life Art Ornamental Fall Garden Autumn

Oil on canvas, 6" x 8"

I usually buy a sack of miniature, mulit-colored gourds for painting inspiration in the fall.  This time I chose a solid orange one to paint.  I guess you'd call it a dimply, pimply, pumpkin gourd.  (I think gourds are in the pumpkin family but they're not good for eating).  This little orange guy had interesting protrusions to play with in paint.  I like to paint subjects in a light that produces a shadow that includes complimentary colors along with the color of the object that I'm painting.

Young Fisherman

Oil Painting Portrait Boy Cane Pole Fishing

Oil on hardboard, 8" x 6".

I was interested in the light and shade pattern on the boy and ground as he stood in the dappled light with his fishing pole in the water.  It was a wonderful summer scene and I wanted to capture its simplicity and peacefulness.

Orange Roses and Blue

Oil Painting Still Life Art Flowers Vase Urn Vessel

This set-up has roses and a vase lit strongly from the side.  I loved the watery-looking reflections that were made on the white surface of the foreground.
