Shore View - SOLD

Shore View Oil on Canvas Panel, 11" x 14" SOLD at $65.00 plus shipping. Another view from the front/bay yard, looking in the opposite direction as in the post below. It has felt great to pick up my oils and brushes today, glad to be back at it. Who would NOT be inspired by a gorgeous day and a beautiful place?

Morning View - SOLD

Morning View Oil on Stretched Canvas, 11" x 14" SOLD at $65.00 plus shipping. I have the lovely opportunity to be at "The Beach House" again this summer, and oh, how wonderful. Today was just glorious, and I had fun painting all morning. This is a view from just before the dock. No blending, just rough brush work, with sunshine and shadow making wonderful contrasts.

Pear Line Up 2 - SOLD

Pear Line Up 2 Watercolor on Paper, 9" x 12" SOLD at $25.00 plus $3.00 mailing. The painting from the other day was popular, so I've done another. These pears though, are ready to be eaten. I'm not sure if I can squeeze one more painting out of them, but they sure are beautiful. Such color!

Bay View - SOLD

Fall Tree Line

Fall Tree Line Watercolor with Pen and Ink, 4.5" x 6.5" Available at $20.00 plus $3.00 mailing. I added sepia and black ink to this loose fallish watercolor.

Pear Line Up - SOLD

Pear Line Up Watercolor on Arches paper, 9" x 12" SOLD at $25.00 plus $3.00 mailing. More fun with the Forelle pears. I think I like this one the best of the series so far. A little loose pen and ink in this one.

Pear Subtraction - SOLD

Pear Subtraction Watercolor on Arches Paper, 9" x 12" SOLD at $20.00 plus $3.00 mailing. Playing with these gorgeous Forelle pears again. This watercolor is a bit looser and splashier than yesterdays' painting.
