Hills of Blue

I will definitely be painting more bluebonnet pictures. I have loved seeing them every spring, and I enjoy the challenge of capturing their beauty in a painting

Oranges and Grapes

Arranging fruit for a still life painting can be an art in itself. To find a pleasing arrangement can take many tries.

Conejos River - Mogote, CO

I painted this for my aunt and uncle after having a great family reunion vacation here. We had a wonderful time there, and I had a wonderful time painting this!

Tea and Grapes

I painted this still life with a group of artists at a workshop in Houston by Carlene Reeves. It was a great workshop and it is always nice to paint with other artists - both for their input and inspiration.

Poppies

The next small painting, including the painted matte. This one of poppies.

Iris

I plan to paint several of these small paintings. I enjoy continuing the painting onto the matte. They are fun to paint and might make nice gifts.

Sunlit Deer

This setting with the deer and the fading light was immediate inspiration for a painting. The silhouette of the deer against the trees was beautiful. I will paint this scene more than once!
