I have rejoined the online gallery of Daily PaintWorks, thinking that the more exposure I can get right now, the better. Of course, there is mighty competition in the gallery also, but we'll see how it goes. This one was originally done by request, but the collector decided to pass, which is perfectly fine.

There's something fun about groupings and multiples that I really like. When there are jumbled groups of things in paintings, I always stop to look. so.... it makes sense to paint some of my own.

Wanderings
Oil on Canvas Panel, 6' x 6"
Not Available, Revised on 5/5/2017

This one is to answer the question, "How much do you think you can fit onto a 6" x 6" canvas?"
In other words, how much detail? I know a lot of the artists on DPW do a LOT with such a small space, but I wasn't sure that I could. Maybe, just maybe...

Today a small watery landscape, in order to study clouds and rocks, again...two things that I (still) don't feel so confident about in landscape painting. I've seen what painters who paint rocks or clouds really well can do, and it bears constant effort.

Don't you love browsing in the foreign (to you) sections of the grocery store? Fascinating the foods that are available from other cultures. I especially like poring over the "Spanish food" aisles, and found this lovely jar of honey right there. I did go and scout the "regular, normal" honey, and there was nothing as interesting or appealing as this jar, made in Texas, with a comb tucked inside.

This is the second painting I did the other day, and since it was tucked into the blog, it wasn't really seen, and did not sell. I have revised it a little this morning, changed some of the shapes, and refined it in some places.

This is just what I wanted to paint today, a happy, tranquil landscape. Doesn't this look like the kind of place where it would be great to have a picnic table, a cook out, while the kids play along the shoreline?
Ah, summertime!

I used the reference photo for two gouache pieces a couple of weeks ago, and still really like it. Soooo, thought I'd try it in oils, see what happens. I like both of these, some particular passages of each.

My niece, Cara, posted a photo from the Colfax Marathon the other day on Facebook, and I liked it for the sky and water. There was a small patch of blue showing thru the clouds, so nice. So this is a practice piece, to see me back into my well-loved oil paints once again.

I liked the complicated look of my reference photo for this one, makes for an interesting painting, I think.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms!
I enjoyed doing the Reflections painting so much yesterday, that after church I decided to do it again.
It's a bit different, but I like this one too.
