Fall Apples Oil Still Life Painting Garden Fruit Organic Traditional Art

Oil on Raymar panel, 6" x 8".

I didn't know the name of these little red and yellow-green apples I painted but I was attracted to their wonderful mingling of colors and their stems with drying leaves still attached. It was interesting to paint them in a subdued and traditional manner and their forms disappearing into the background.

Grey Pony Oil Painting Welsh Pet Art Western Horse Ride Saddle

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

I admired the lovely markings and friendly face of this pony who was doing her duty giving kids a ride at a festival. She was decked out in a bright purple halter, lead rope and saddle blanket. She also had some blonde and rusty shades mixed in with the grey hairs of her thick mane which I tried to capture faithfully. I guess just because I found them attractive!

The 3/4" sides are painted so framing is optional!

Cherries and Light Oil Still Life Painting Organic Fruit Kitchen Art

Oil on canvas hardboard, 6" x 8"

I used only a few ingredients in making this painting - bright sunlight, a white bowl and a few cherries.  The shapes of the cherries' shadows became another visual ingredient to be enjoyed too.  The dark red cherries glow a brighter red in the light and colors bounce around in the mix with the bowl.  I like to bake tasty things, but painting the ingredients is more fun and rewarding.  And the result lasts longer.

Pug Shrug Oil Painting Dog Art Pet Portrait

Oil on canvas, 8" x 6".

I've painted my pug, Mabel many times over the last fifteen years and she always has great expressions.  This painting was done from a photo of her being held by a child and she's looking at the camera like a good model.  I painted only her and she looks like she's shrugging with one shoulder with her fat rolls pushed up to one side. Her expression was either one of great enthusiasm or great superiority I thought!

Calla Bloom Oil Painting Lilly Still Life Flower Art Botanical Garden

Oil on hardboard panel, 11" x 9"

I'll have to admit that I was inspired to paint a Calla Lilly again after I saw a friend's entry to one of our local art center's annual competitions.  My Calla is different as far as the color of  bloom and background and also hers is a large watercolor and mine is a smaller, intimate oil.  I saw the fun (in my mind) of painting a tall white bloom against a dark background.  Colors bounce around in the light and create interest among the white tones.  The Calla Lilly stalks are sturdy and their blooms display intricate, sensual forms. They always make great subjects to experiment with and learn from .  So, thanks, Jeanette, for reminding me of these beauties!
