Since I was dreaming I was painting an iris, and woke up amused, I figured I'd go ahead and paint another one. The seem to be very popular.

Two revised at Twenty Each - SOLD

Maples in the Fog, Revised - SOLD
Oil on Canvas Paper, 14" x 14"
SOLD at $20 plus $7 shipping

Sunday Drive, Revised
Oil on Canvas Paper, 14" x 14"
SOLD at $20 plus $7 shipping.

I liked both of these well enough to revise them and re-post. On the Maples, I added more color, and fixed the "river" that was running through the middle. Also I changed the shapes are directions of the trunks. On the Sunday Drive piece, I added the ending of the fence, and put leaves in the road. There was too much road before. They both look better to me.

The Fishing Shack - SOLD

The Fishing Shack
Oil on Sueded Paper, 12" x 16"
SOLD at $40 plus $7 shipping.

I revised this one this morning, punched it up a little. I do like it, feels to me like morning for some reason.

Magnolia - SOLD

Magnolia
Acrylics on Canvas Panel, 9" x 12"

I decided that I'd better have a sample of what we'll be doing in class on Wednesday.
So I spent some time today painting this and writing the lesson for a floral class.
