Texas Countryside, Oil Painting 16 x20

Texas Countryside is another freestyle oil painting of things I love about Texas.  Also, an inspiration from the similar smaller painting I posted earlier this month motivated me to paint the scene bigger.  The larger canvas enticed me to put more in the scene and a bit of what is going on in Texas now (oil wells in background).

I like painting on 16 x 20 inch canvases.  They are a nice presentation size and will fit in easily on your walls.  Carolyn, my wife, frames my paintings including the selection and mounting of the canvas.  I took the picture of this one in the studio hanging on the particle board wall which I planned to paint, but once the easel got set up, I never got around to it.  I would rather paint on canvas than walls.

I hope you like the painting.  If interested in purchasing this painting or my other artworks, please email me for availability and price.  I accept payment over the internet through PayPal, a secure method.

The Cornfield Barn

Original Sold, Prints Available at www.thebartlettpair.com

This is an acrylic painting I did today on a 9x12 gallery stretched canvas with edges painted.  This beautiful field and barn is located in South Texas on hwy 111 between Midfield and Lake Texana.  The weather is very hot and dry and the field looked like it could really use some rain. I used a bit of impressionism for the field and took artistic liberties with the barn.  I really liked the way the tall corn was crowding the barn and the colors blended like a storybook scene.  This was another one I knew I had to paint.  I hope you like the painting.
