Dried Hydrangea, Aubergine Bowl - SOLD

Dried Hydrangea, Aubergine Bowl Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 8" SOLD at $40.00 plus $5.00 shipping. This was a timed painting with bristle brushes, so very fast, and very loose. (I gave myself one hour, but did go a little over.)

The Cut River - SOLD

The Cut River Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas, 12" x 12" x 1.5" SOLD. I'm trying to get some of my Christmas commissions done now, so they'll have time to dry and get shipped before the holiday is here. This is one of them.

Sunflower Brights - SOLD

Sunflower Brights Oil on Stretched Canvas, 10" x 10" SOLD at $40.00 plus shipping. I'm done with these guys for now. Sunflowers are tough, they either turn out magically, or they flop. There doesn't seem to be much in between.

Orange Dyed Sunflowers

Orange Dyed Sunflowers Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12" Available at $65.00 plus $10.00 shipping. I couldn't resist these orange sunflowers when I spotted them in the grocery store. Fun. The water turned red, so I knew they were dyed. A swish painting for today.

Red Bowl with Pears - SOLD

Red Bowl with Pears Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 8" SOLD at $40.00 plus shipping. A revision of an earlier painting also called Red Bowl with Pears. I changed the background and brightened up everything else. Much better.

Pansy Pair - SOLD

Pansy Pair

Oil on Artbord Panels, 8" x 8" x 1/2"

SOLD.

A set of pansies for a collector's request.

Thanks for looking! And I think this will be the last of the pansies until spring.

Dried Hydrangea

Dried Hydrangea Oil on Stretched Canvas, 10" x 10" Available at $45.00 plus $5.00 shipping. When my friend, B. and I wandered around Tuesday Morning recently, she spotted this great bowl in a cool mauvey-brown color, and pointed out that it would be perfect for a hydrangea blossom. I bought it, and have been planning to do that ever since.

Lake Needwood, Fall 2 - SOLD

Lake Needwood, Fall 2 Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 16" SOLD at $45.00 plus $5.00 shipping. For a collector who liked yesterday's paintig, and asked for a repeat. Isn't it interesting the differences?

Fall, Lake Needwood - SOLD

Fall, Lake Needwood Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 16" SOLD at $50.00 plus $5.00 shipping. It's been a seemingly "long" fall here in Maryland. We still have gorgeous colors, and in the rain today, so rich. This is from a photo I took at Lake Needwood a few weeks back.

Marti's Irises - SOLD

Marti's Irises Watercolor on Paper, Paper size full sheet 22" x 30" Image size 19" x 24" SOLD. An iris watercolor today, done by request.

Intimate Iris - SOLD

Intimate Iris
Watercolor on Aquabord, 8" x 8"
SOLD at $30.00 plus $5.00 shipping.

I am running low on canvas, and have a watercolor to do, so thought I'd play with this little piece of Aquabord. With this, you only have to spray fix the watercolor (which I'll do, like a varnish), and then it's sealed, and you can frame it like an oil or acrylic, no glass. Cool, huh?

Peaches Lined Up - SOLD

Peaches Lined Up
Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 16"
SOLD at $60.00 plus shipping.

These guys were harder than I thought they'd be. All those colors, frosty mauves, bright yellows, oranges, reds, deep red-purples, tricky.

Just Peachy 2 - SOLD

Just Peachy 2 Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12" SOLD as replacement painting. My friend sold her painting, Just Peachy, to someone else, and asked me to make a replacement painting. I tried to come as close as I could to her original, and this is what came out of it. Hope you're happy with it, D!

Agricultural Park - SOLD

Agricultural Park Oil on Stretched Canvas, 10" x 10" SOLD at $40.00 plus $5.00 shipping. It was so beautiful today in Maryland, that I hooked up with some of the Montgomery County Plein Air folks, and ventured out to our lovely agricultural park. I didn't last for more than 3 hours though, cold ears from the wind, glare on my canvas (from insisting on being in the sun) and chilly hands. I liked the dapples on this little shed.

Pink Pansies

Pink Pansies Oil on Board, 8" x 8" Available at $40.00 plus $5.00 shipping. I kow, have you ever seen pink pansies? I never had, but found these, here at the tail end of the flowering season. Good old Home Depot.

Peony Tweaked - SOLD

Peony Tweaked Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 16" SOLD at $75.00 plus shipping. I always liked this one (Peony Bud Opening), and figured maybe I could tweak it up a bit and change the background color, and offer it again. I think the blue is better (it used to be green in the background.)

November Pansies - SOLD

November Pansies
Oil on Gessoboard, 8" x 8"
SOLD at $40.00 plus $5.00 shipping.

This panel has a small thickness of about 1/2" which will be painted. The panel has slots in the back for hanging, so once the edges are painted, it will need no framing. Happy to find pansies still at the Home Depot, besides all the mums and Christmas trees (potted ones, of course.)

Amherst Autumn Two - SOLD

Amherst Autumn Two Oil on Stretched Canvas, 16" x 20" SOLD at $115.00 plus $10.00 shipping. This one is pretty big, and was intended as yesterday's post, but it just didn't seem to want to be finished, so I worked on it some more today. It's a lot of canvas to cover lovingly and I'm quite pleased with the results.

Amherst Autumn - SOLD

Amherst Autumn Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12" SOLD at $50.00 plus $10.00 shipping. No, I didn't take a trip to Amherst. My dear friend Barbara came down to Maryland to visit her daughter and family, and we were able to visit, and she brought me lovely photos that she'd taken this fall in Massachusetts. This one I'll also do in a 16" x 20" size, yum. Don't you like the little leaves on the water?

White Onion

White Onion Oil on Gessoed Board, 6" x 6" Available at $20.00 pus $5.00 shipping. White onion on a white plate. Palette knife painting.
