Daisies For The Day, Original Painting

Daisies For The Day is in oils and acrylics (mixed media) and is painted on a 10 x 8 inch gallery wrap canvas with edges also painted.  This painting is the first of several small pieces I am painting this summer in preparation for our fall shows this year.  It was done "freestyle", no pattern, sketch or references.

If you wish to purchase my paintings, please email me.

God Bless You,

Mexican Lime Oil Painting

We have two Mexican Lime trees that abundantly provide my wife Carolyn with limes for her tea.  Ours produce nearly all year long.  They have small white blossoms and the bees love them.  The fruit turns to a pale yellow when fully ripe.

I painted the Mexican Lime in oils alla prima on a 10 x 8 gallery wrapped canvas.  I had prepared the canvas a couple of months ago with a blue teal left over mix from another painting and have been thinking about what to paint on it.  Kept it simple and used the lime as it was complimentary.  The palette consisted of: yellow light, sap green, green light permanent, yellow ochre, yellow, burnt umber, white and a tad of burnt sienna.  Check my website and etsy in the above menu should you wish to purchase paintings or prints.  I am also a member of Fine Art America which is a great place to buy art.

I hope you like the painting.

Pink Poppies

Photography Prints
Freestyle Poppies is one of my first studies I did when learning to paint flowers with oils. I liked it, but as a study, and so it has hung in the studio for several years without a showing. I would like to give it an opportunity to be viewed and find a home. The original is still in my studio hanging above the door. Beautiful prints are available of the Poppies here on FAA. Thanks for looking.

Merry Christmas,
