Lonely Pear - SOLD

Lonely Pear Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 8" SOLD at $20.00 plus $7.00 shipping. Back to my brushes today for a bit. It seemed like such fast painting, after all the palette knife work. Doesn't this pear look lonely, like he missed the boat? Not the best composition, so I priced it low. It might appeal to someone for the colors. Nel http://nelseverydaypainting.blogspot.com/

Inviting Path Three - NA

Inviting Path Three Oil on Stretched Canvas, 12" x 12" Not available, revised on 9/24/10
This one is by request, for someone who wanted the second Inviting Path, but it was already sold. I think I'm done for the moment. Hope you haven't gotten too bored, looking at these. It's actually kind of fun, seeing how they turn out so varied, even though you're trying each time for the same thing.
Note: The collector chose the 4th version of this, which is lighter.
This one is available, but in it's revised version. Nel http://nelseverydaypainting.blogspot.com/

Dappled Creek Two - NA

Dappled Creek Two Oil on Stretched Canvas, 11" x 14" Revised July 24, 2010. This one is repeat of the painting I posted on May 7. Again, a combination piece, both brushwork and palette knife. The water seems to feel better with brushwork, and the sky, but I love doing foliage with the knife. Thanks for looking! Nel http://nelseverydaypainting.blogspot.com/

Fieldwork Two - SOLD

Fieldwork Two Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 8" SOLD at $45.00 plus shipping. I liked the little square canvas of this field corner so much, that I painted it again. Isn't it interesting how differently two paintings of the same scene can turn out? Nel http://nelseverydaypainting.blogspot.com

Fieldwork One -SOLD

Fieldwork One Oil on Stretched Canvas, 8" x 8" SOLD at $45.00 plus shipping. I have a photo of a farm scene (from Butler's Orchard), which I've used before, but cropped it way down to just a corner of a hillside, love the colors. Palette knife work again. Nel http://nelseverydaypainting.blogspot.com
