Three Onions, and Revised Dried Hydrangea - SOLD

Three Onions
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 9" x 12"
SOLD

My onions from the Natural Food store here in Chestertown, with a red plush throw hooked into the window curtains for a background. I like that rich background color, and I'm happy with the onions.
Note: The top photo is the revised painting, with softer shadows, and photo taken in daylight.

Dried Hydrangea
Oil on Canvas Panel, 9" x 12"
SOLD at $25, includes shipping.

I revised the hydrangea from the other day, used the little blue jug and the lap throw tucked into the curtains again. Much better, don't you think?

Little Blue Jug - NA

Little Blue Jug
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 9" x 12"
Not Available, Revised on 4/21/17

This is an odd little painting. At the AirBnB where I'm staying right now, there are only yellow lights (the old incandescent bulbs) so even though I'm painting by a window, the light inside is yellow. When I matched my colors to what I was painting, I tried for exact, and okay, I got close, but.....If you like the piece, but want the cloth to be a different color, I can do that too.

I DO like the onions and the jug.

Creek to the Chester - NA

Creek to the Chester
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 11" x 14"
Revised on April 23, 2017

Across the street is a long, narrow park, which follows a little creek, which leads into the Chester River. Nice that they built a little footbridge over the creek, a good place to take a photo or two. Sweet little spot to walk to.
